Summit continued to suffer from an inability
to stop the big play. Mendham took the opening kickoff and on
the first play ran 67 yards for a TD. In fact, Mendham scored
the next two times they had the ball, a 67 yard pass and a 39
yard pass. In the 1st quarter Mendham ran a grand total of seven
plays and was up 20-0. However, there were many pluses to the
evening. After that brutal 1st quarter Summit outscored Mendham
20-15. Early in the 4th Quarter Summit closed to within a TD at
20-27, but Mendham answered with its final TD.
After the initial shock of Mendham's opening score Summit took
the kickoff and drove to Mendham's 26 powered by passes to Jon
Campagna and Billy Wheeler. The drive ended when a
4th down pass went through the receiver's hands at the 3 yard
line. Summit got on the scoreboard early in the 2nd quarter when
passes to Campagna and Matt Benedetti gave Summit
a 1st down on Mendham's 45. On the next play John Martini
broke through and out ran the Mendham secondary. Mendham answered
Summit's threat with a 10 play/51 yard drive.
The 2nd quarter started well. Summit took the kickoff and moved
to a first down on the Mendham 5 yard line on the running of Martini
and a nice reception by Benedetti. On 2nd down and 4 to
go a Mendham defender stepped in front of the Summit receiver
and intercepted a Keith Schroeder pass at the goal line
and returned it to Summit's 38. Fortunately Mendham lost possession
on a fumble at the Summit 17. Three passes to Benedetti and
47 yard pass to Wheeler gave Summit a 1st down on the Mendham's
13 yard line. On 4th and 11 Schroeder rolled out, saw a
running opportunity and with a fine second effort gave Summit
a 1st down on the 3 yard line. Two plays later Martini scored.to
close the gap to 14-27. On the kickoff Mendham fumbled on their
40 and Summit came up with the ball. On the next play Schroeder
hit Wheeler deep for another TD. Nick Monaco's string
of 8 consecutive successful PATs came to an end when the kick
went just wide of the uprights.
Summit threatened once more when Mendham turned over the ball
on downs at Summit's 7 yard line. Four passes (a 19 yard pass
to Wheeler, a 16 yarder to Campagna, and 16 and
9 yard passes to Benedetti) moved Summit to Mendham's 31
yard line. An interception in the end zone ended the drive.
Schroeder and his primary receivers (Wheeler, Campagna
and Benedetti) had the best Summit passing game in decades
as they completed 20 of 37 for 285 yards.
