The lawsuit is asking for an “injunctive relief” and for the state’s Group 2 championship game, slated for Saturday at Rutgers University, to be put on hold. “What we’re trying to do is put the brakes on the game pending on who should be the right team to be in that game and declare Manasquan the winner.
