Six S.J. football picks

All games Friday at 7 p.m.

Timber Creek (2-0) at Delsea (2-0): The No. 1 Chargers' stout defense led by linebackers Julian Mahan, Tavian Martin and Tyreek Williams will be tested by the No. 5 Crusaders' power running game led by quarterback Quinn Collins and running back Rashaad Williams. Timber Creek will be without star wide receiver Cam Chambers, a Michigan State recruit.

Pick: Timber Creek, 17-14.

Egg Harbor Twp. (2-0) at Vineland (2-0):

The winner gets to 3-0 and emerges as the top challenger to push up among St. Augustine and St. Joseph at top of Cape-Atlantic American Division. Egg Harbor is averaging 47.5 points behind senior quarterback David Rice and senior all-purpose Spencer LaSure.

Pick: EHT, 26-20.

Audubon (1-1) at Collingswood (1-1): Senior quarterback Brian Furlong has thrown six touchdown passes for the Green Wave. Collingswood's physical front seven on defense is led by linebackers Donny Barr and Dashon Burdett.

Pick: Collingswood, 20-19.

Cherry Hill West (1-1) at Paul VI (2-0):

This is an important WJFL Constitution game. Paul VI has been explosive on offense, with senior running back Chris Randle and senior all-purpose Gavin Sentak among the players to watch.

Pick: Paul VI, 27-20.

Moorestown (1-1) at Seneca (0-2):

This is a key game for two teams hoping to fashion bounce-back seasons after tough times in 2014. Moorestown has some momentum after a dramatic win over Burlington Twp. on Friday snapped a 10-game losing streak.

Pick: Seneca, 14-10.

Haddonfield (1-1) at Paulsboro (2-0):

This is a good matchup on a rare Friday night game in Paulsboro. Haddonfield senior quarterback Tommy Kadar ran for three touchdowns in last week's win over Sterling. Paulsboro senior quarterback Carlton Aiken is a playmaker as a passer and runner while sophomore all-purpose Dehron Holloway leads South Jersey with seven touchdowns.

Pick: Haddonfield, 17-14.
