The Garden State has assumed a trailblazing role among states turning to video review for high school football games, and the Shore Conference is helping lead the charge.
The St. John Vianney at Rumson-Fair Haven game on Sept. 7 will be the first of seven Shore games included as New Jersey high school football turns to video review on a limited basis this fall. The other games are listed at the bottom of this story.
Minnesota used video replay during its 2017 state championship games, according to the Washington Post, and Georgia is following suit. Alabama and Arizona also moving toward using video review for a trial period.

Shore Conference coaches said they're unsure of what kind of impact review will have.
“I’m not worried about it, but I think it could be helpful," Middletown North coach Steve Bush said. "I guess they are only using it for scoring plays and turnovers, so It’s not going to be a big stoppage of play. We will see how it goes."
Middletown North will play in a game with video review against Brick on Oct. 5.
Lacey head coach Lou Vircillo, who is entering his 38th season at the helm of the Lions, will get his first taste of in-season video review when Lacey takes on Manalapan on Oct. 26.
"It's going to be a very fundamental kind of thing because they're only going to have a few cameras," Vircillo said. "I don't know how it is going to work yet."
Both Bush and Vircillo said there have been times when video review would have been helpful.
"We had a touchdown, we were three yards into the end zone, and the ball came out, and they (the refs) called it a touchback for them,'' Bush recalled. "It was a pivotal play in the game, so it would have been nice to have been able to use replay in that situation."
"I try to think back over the years as to what was so obvious. I can think of one play that was totally blown by an official,'' Vircillo said. "It was a field goal play, it went right through the uprights and the guy missed it. We had to play in overtime because of it. When they observed it as a group they noticed it was really a blown call."
In the select video review games, coaches will now have the ability to challenge turnovers and scoring plays. Officials will then head to the replay tent or canopy to review the play. The referee will then announce if the call was confirmed or overturned based on video evidence.
If the coach's challenge fails, the team will be charged with a timeout.
Coaches will have one challenge per half, which they can use at any point. If their first challenge is a success, they receive another challenge. A maximum of two challenges are allowed in the first half.
The second half of games have a twist. Teams can have a "special challenge" with three minutes left in the game.
The NJSIAA has released a manual highlighting all of the rules and regulations with the new replay system.
For video review games, cameras from Hudl Sideline and sanctioned broadcasts will be deployed.
