Salem lost to Pennsville 28-0.
Glassboro won 23-0 last year and 41-0 the year before + a playoff win of 21-0 the following week. Salem won 16-14 in 2005. Overall Glassboro leads the series 25-12-4.
Salem seems to be slumping as of late, but don't overlook them. They have won 7 times simce the series was renewed in 1987 (20 games).
Lamont Jackson Jr. is the QB and now has a full season under his belt. He threw 17 TD passes last year, so pass defense will be key for the Bulldogs. Alfred Coleman, Shaquilla Brooks and Lee Schofield will be his main targets along with newcomer Junior Derrick Parsley who some view as a Division 1 prospect. Glassboro was the only team to beat them by more than 10 points last year and they almost upset Clearview (9-1, Royal Division Champions) leading the Pioneers 22-10 early in the 4th. They had a 16 point lead on Schalick before losing 22-16, so with more experience their endurance may be better and I wouldn't judge them by the results of week #1.
