Elizabeth Stays Unbeaten with Dominant Win Over Bayonne, 25-6 Bayonne, NJ—The Bayonne Bees opened their 2024 varsity football season with a tough loss, falling 25-6 to Elizabeth High School in their home opener on Friday night. Elizabeth, led by senior quarterback Arique Fleming, improved to 2-0 behind a strong first half that saw them take a commanding 19-0 lead by halftime. Fleming showcased his dual-threat abilities, passing for 182 yards and four touchdowns on 9-of-15 passing without a turnover. His favorite targets included Nahjae Smith, who caught two of Fleming’s touchdowns, including a 59-yard bomb in the third quarter to stretch the lead to 25-0. Bayonne struggled to gain momentum early, with their offense unable to score through three quarters. Their breakthrough finally came in the fourth, when quarterback Leo Lin connected with wide receiver Jerome Hayes Jr. for a 53-yard touchdown, avoiding the shutout. Lin finished with 154 yards on 7-of-20 passing with one touchdown. The Elizabeth offense started the game strong, with Fleming finding Smith for an 8-yard touchdown in the first quarter, followed by a 42-yard touchdown pass to Jamad Lyles in the second. Quameen Williams added a 20-yard touchdown reception later in the half, but a blocked extra point kept the score at 19-0. Fleming’s 59-yard strike to Smith in the third quarter sealed the deal for the visitors. Despite the loss, Bayonne saw flashes of promise. Running back Chance Fischer led the Bees’ ground game with 58 yards on 12 carries, while Deon McKinnon provided key receptions, racking up 77 yards on three catches. However, the Bees' defense struggled to contain Elizabeth’s passing attack. Bayonne (0-1) will look to rebound next week as they face another tough opponent, while Elizabeth (2-0) aims to continue their winning streak. Final Score: Elizabeth 25, Bayonne 6.
