Central Jersey Group 4 Football Power Points: Week 1

The first weekend of the high school football season is in the books, and now it’s time to see where all the teams are ranked.

Teams earn points based on the group classification of each team they beat throughout the season (5 points for defeating a Group 5 team, 4 points for beating a Group 4 team, etc.) plus one point for each win by that team. Power points are based on the best seven of a team’s first eight games in a season. The top eight teams in each group qualify for the playoffs.
