The Pinelands Regional football team jumped back onto the winning track following a one-point loss to nearby rival Barnegat the previous week and needed overtime to do it.

Tied 20-20 with Neptune at the end of regulation, senior running back Jaimin Parkinson scored his third touchdown of the game with a 25-yard burst to the house, completing a massive effort to give the Wildcats a 26-20 victory on Oct. 18. Parkinson tallied 234 yards on the ground, carrying the ball 26 times to lead the offense.
