Parsippany showed that they weren't about to give up on their next possession. They took the kickoff and drove 65 yards in 6 plays, aided by a 15 yard "unsportsmen like conduct" penalty on Summit. This drive sent a little chill through the Summit fans. However, on the following kick off Dwight Reid caught the ball on Summit's 10 yard line and went 90 yards for the score. The 1st half ended with Summit on top 28-7.
Summit started the 2nd half by kicking off and Parsippany promptly rolled to the Summit 29 in 11 plays. A holding penalty moved the ball back to the 39 where the drive stalled and Summit took over on their 38 yard line. Summit then launched its longest sustained drive of the game. Six different runners carried the ball in this 12 play drive. A key pass to Cheng kept the drive alive when Summit faced 3rd and 6 on Parsippany's 42 yard line. Della Piazza covered the final 7 yards for the TD. Parsippany scored their other TD on a 60 yard drive after Summit began taking their starters off the field.
Cheng has come on strong as a place kicker. In addition to his 5 PATs his first two kick offs were gems. Both went into the end zone on the fly for touchbacks. The first kick was with the wind, but the second one was into the wind. Summit hasn't seen that kind of kicking in a very long time.
