π Eastern earns its first playoff win since 2013! π
Sean Somers hit a go-ahead 29 yard field goal early in the fourth, then Anthony Salamone iced things with a 27 yard TD as the Vikings knocked off EHT 10-0 in the first round of the SJ Group 5 playoffs. Jahiem Alexander had an interception as part of a stellar defensive night from Eastern in head coach Lionel Bolen's first playoff win.
FULL highlights + reaction coming later to JSZ!

TEAMS TO KNOW 2026: Eastern Regional (NJ)
Eastern Regional is one of the more interesting South Jersey Group 5 teams heading into 2026.
The Vikings bring back experience on both sides, added pieces to the mix, and have a chance to build off last yearβs playoff push.
