Passaic Tech football storms past Burlington Township in season opener
After a 40-6 loss to Burlington Township last year, Passaic Tech trailed in the fourth quarter of the rematch before taking control.
Passaic Tech's football team secured a hard-fought 49-36 victory over Burlington Township in their season opener, held at the Jim Grasso Classic at Northern Highlands on August 28. Despite giving up an early 22-point deficit in the first half, the Bulldogs fought back to secure the win. The turnaround came in the fourth quarter when they scored three touchdowns, including a crucial recovery by Malachi McGregor on a Burlington Township muff of a short kickoff.
This marks a reversal of fortunes from the previous year's opener, where Burlington Township had won 40-6 in the West Orange Mountaineer Classic.
