Besides Friday’s game between Lenape and host Holy Spirit, here are some other top South Jersey football games of the week. After this week, there will be just the Thanksgiving games that will end the season.  
 
This is the second of the two-week postseason games in South Jersey. While it isn’t technically playoffs, these are called West Jersey Football League pod games. it matches some of the top teams. Here are some of the top games of the week.  
 
Friday 
CANCELLED: Camden (3-1) and Ocean City (6-0), 6 p.m. The West Jersey Football League sent out this tweet: "Camden administration will not let them travel to Ocean City for the game Friday. WJFL has been trying to find a neutral site to play the game." Ocean City will now prepare for its final game on Thanksgiving at Pleasantville. 
 
Williamstown (5-2) at St. Augustine (3-2), 6 p.m. This is a WJFL Bracket C final round. These two teams are very familiar with each other. Even though there were no conferences in this shortened season, last year both were members of the WJFL American Division.  On Oct. 30, St. Augustine scored a 17-16 overtime win over Williamstown. St. Augustine has lost its two games to Millville (22-21) and Holy Spirit (12-7), so the Hermits can be competitive with any team in South Jersey. The Hermits have been idle since their loss to Holy Spirit on Nov. 6. Williamstown is coming off a 14-13 victory over Hammonton in the semifinal. Turner Inge ran for 100 yards and two touchdowns. Inge is among the top players in South Jersey.  
 
Saturday 
Paulsboro (6-0) at Salem (5-0), Saturday at 12 p.m. This is the final of the WJFL Bracket D pod. Paulsboro is coming off a 36-0 win over previously unbeaten Haddon Heights.
