Shawnee easily had the top team and individual scores of the day, riding Andrew Abbonizio's 268-257-279=804 to a team series of 3233. South Brunswick also scored well, posting 3139. East Brunswick is the only team in nj.com's preseason rankings (#8) to debut Thursday, and they did well, shooting 3071.
Other reported 700s include:
Jacob Boris (Seneca) 704
Trey Zagi (Ewing) 730
Matthew Stephens (Egg Harbor) 741
Daniel Lenk (East Brunswick) 702
Daniel Whelan (Iselin Kennedy) 730
Anthony Mathis (Cherry Hill East) 716
Anthony Mathis (Cherry Hill East) 716
Things were a little quieter on the girls' side. No 600s that I've noticed. The top team performance was Manchester Township's 2618 in a win over Barnegat, which serves notice that they're a state contender yet again this year. South Plainfield (preseason #10 by nj.com) fired 2494, which is good enough to justify their ranking.
Of course, the girls season doesn't really start until Brick Township faces Brick Memorial for the first time, which is scheduled for tomorrow. The two Brick schools are #1 and #2 pretty much every year, but both squads lost a lot to graduation, so it's a question of who can re-load more effectively. Nj.com has Township as #1 and Memorial as #5, but I think they've got it backwards, as Memorial's pipeline seems stronger at this point in time. We'll start to find out tomorrow.
