Wayne Valley got off to a 2-0 lead when Paramus botched a punt in the end zone. Matt Castles was the first to reach the punter.
Castles then scored the team's first touchdown on a 13 yard rush. He set up the score with a 54 yard rush earlier in the drive. Later in the drive, Pete Savastano helped Valley convert a 4th-and-10 with a completion to Anthony Verrilli.
Savastano scored Valley's second touchdown on a three yard rush. Savastano had a 31 yard completion to Castles on the drive.
Savastano then threw a 5 yard touchdown to Greg LaNeve in the 4th period. The ensuing Savastano to Anthony Verrilli two point conversion play put Valley (2-2) up 22-8 and would prove crucial. Paramus scored two touchdowns to pull within 22-21 with less than a minute remaining. Instead of playing it safe, going for a tie and thus sending it to overtime, Parmaus elected to go for two and the win. The attempt failed when backup linebacker Mike Pascrel broke up a pass attempt at the goal line.
"Mike was in good position and came up with a great play," head coach Brian O'Connor said.
Pascrel had actually just been burned on the Paramus touchdown.
"They had just beaten me on the same play, so I had a feeling they might try it again," he said. "I"m glad I was able to make the play."
Savastano led the way with 109 passing yards. Castles had 108 rushing yards. Colin Bush and Andrew DeFilippis had 8 tackles apiece. Brandon Castelbuouno had five tackles, including one sack. Savastano and Mike Tolerico had interceptions.
