Football: Miller scores 3 TDs as Somerville edges out road win over Old Bridge

Mike Miller scored three touchdowns to help Somerville take a 42-33 road win over Old Bridge in Matawan.

Miller delivered a 33-yard scoring strike to Wes Hack and a 10-yard touchdown pass to Chase Insabella in the first half to help the Pioneers take a 21-19 halftime lead, and then punched in a rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter to make it a 35-26 game.

The Knights (1-1) scored a touchdown with 9:39 left in the game to cut Somerville’s lead to 35-32 but a key interception by Quinn Carran with about seven minutes left kept Old Bridge from finding a late go-ahead touchdown. Terell Mitchell scored the second of his two rushing touchdowns with 2:29 left to seal the win for Somerville.

Haysm Hobbs also scored a touchdown in the win.

Brady Cavallaro threw a pair of the touchdowns for the Knights and Dan Hennessey finished with two rushing touchdowns.
