Banks to Towson

Bound Brook senior wide receiver Erron Banks has committed to Division I-AA Towson University. Banks said he also had interest from Albany, Stony Brook, the University of New Hampshire and Maine.

Banks caught five touchdown passes last year and returned a punt for a score.

Speaking of New Hampshire, former Somerville High star quarterback Ryan Carty is now the defensive backs coach at the school. One of the players Carty is coaching is former Piscataway star Terrence Fox, who graduated in June.

Plainfield High returned from a camp this past week in upstate New York. Reggie Robinson, who has taken over for longtime head coach Clint Jones, said there are three players competing for the starting quarterback job. The Cardinals are scheduled to scrimmage at Lincoln Saturday, play host to St. John Vianney Monday, then play a game scrimmage at Teaneck a week from Saturday. The Cardinals open the season at home Sept. 8 against defending North 2, Group IV champ Elizabeth.
