Notes

  • #2 Wissahickon continued their fantastic undefeated season with a Pennsylvania State Championships victory over Harriton, 15-11 in the final.
  • At PA States, Pennsbury took a shock 15-14 loss to Lower Merion in quarters, knocking them out of contention and out of the top 25. Masterman’s strong weekend — their only loss coming to Wissahickon in semis — vaults them into the top 25. Harriton’s continued strength and close game against Wiss moves them up to #11 in the rankings.
  • Amherst won Massachusetts States over Lexington, keeping the title in Western Mass.
  • #12 Montclair and #17 Columbia are set to compete in the NJ State title game tomorrow night for an important seeding game for HSNI.

Notes

  • Four Rivers took down Massachusetts States, finishing comfortably ahead of Newton North, Northampton, and other challengers. How will they stack up against the deep field at HSNI?
  • Strath Haven reached the Pennsylvania State finals, where they got blown out by a very talented #11 Lower Merion team.
