Ridgewood Football Vying for Championship Appearance Friday

Ridgewood High School's second seed Maroons are one win away from an appearance in their football section's championship game.

Having passed East Orange with a 63-34 win in the first playoff round of the North 1, Group 5 tournament last Friday, the undefeated Ridgewood team takes on Passaic Tech of Wayne under the lights of RHS Stadium this Friday night at 7 p.m.

The third seed Passaic Tech squad bested Hackensack 40-6 last week. The team has an 8-2 record going into the semi-final game.

The winner of Friday's game will go on to play either undefeated Montclair or 8-2 Union City in a championship game at MetLife Stadium Dec. 6.
