<span style="font-weight: 400;">As Week 4 of the high school football season in New Jersey is under wraps we take a look at the top five quarterback performances from across the state. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Here is a look at this week’s top performers:</span>
<strong>Shane Johnson | West Windsor-Plainsboro South </strong>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Johnson was one of three passers in the state who threw for more than 310 yards this past weekend, as he led the way with 335 yards passing. He completed 18 of 29 passes while throwing for five touchdown passes while helping West Windsor to a 50-47 victory over Lawrence.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Analysis:</strong> Johnson has the ability to move the pocket and does a good job with his reads and getting the ball to his playmakers in a hurry. He’s an accurate passer who allows his receivers to make plays in the open field. </span>
<strong>Bryan Johnson | Woodbury </strong>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Johnson completed 12 of 22 passes for 319 yards and four touchdowns in Woodbury’s 42-0 shutout victory over Holy Cross. He threw touchdown passes of 15 and 45 yards and two others later in the game.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Analysis:</strong> The southpaw stands tall in the pocket and has the arm strength to get the ball to his receivers in small windows. He shows above-average accuracy by putting the ball in spots where only his receivers can catch the ball. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Zebrowski helped his team to a 28-26 victory over Morris Catholic by throwing for 311 yards and three touchdowns. He completed 70% of his passes as he was 24 of 34 passing. He threw touchdown passes of 13, 15 and 19 yards.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Analysis:</strong> The 6-foot-3, 210-pound prospect is mobile for his size as he has the ability to move around the pocket. He always keeps his eyes downfield and displays an accurate arm with great touch. </span>
<strong>Brandon Kenney | Livingston </strong>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Kenney was 22 of 40 passing for 296 yards and two touchdowns as Livingston fell to Roxbury 28-13.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Analysis:</strong> Kenney does a good job throwing the ball on the run as he’s often rolling out with a run-pass option. He does a good job squaring his shoulders and delivering the ball to his receivers. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Giannone put on a dominating performance as he completed 16 of 19 passes for 285-yards and four touchdowns as he helped lead Middletown North to a 42-7 victory over Howell.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Analysis:</strong> Giannone has good size as he stands 6-foot-6. He has a strong and accurate arm and is poised under pressure. He does a nice job with touch throws over the linebackers on intermediate routes. </span>
