Passaic Tech football rallies past Phillipsburg for repeat

NOTE: This story has been updated with quotes and more information. PHILLIPSBURG — Phillipsburg High School’s football team did enough Friday night to win most games. Passaic County Tech, however, isn’t like most opponents. The Stateliners did plenty of good things in a 21-10 loss in the North 2, Group 5 final on Nov 13. But the defending sectional champion Bulldogs simply had a few gears more, namely outstanding senior running back Randy Lewis who ran for 254 yards on 23 carries with a back-breaking 79-yard touchdown with about four minutes to play to give Tech its 21-10 lead. “They made more plays than we did, they were able to get their run game going and we didn’t do great against the run, but we were in position to kind of make it a game in the end,” said Liners coach Frank Duffy. “I was proud of our team and am confident in them. They played hard until the very end and showed their grittiness.” Sophomore Hunter Garrison’s 33-yard field goal gave third-seed Pburg a 10-7 lead on the first play of the fourth quarter. No. 4 seed Passaic Tech took a 14-10 lead with a key 40-yard completion on
