Pompton Lakes (North 1, Group 1), Leonia (North 2, Group 2) and Demarest (North 1, Group 3) each received the top seed in their respective brackets Monday when officials met in Robbinsville to seed the NJSIAA state team tennis tournament.
Hasbrouck Heights/Wood-Ridge (North 1, Group 1), Northern Highlands (North 1, Group 3), Fair Lawn (North 1, Group 4), Don Bosco (North, Non-Public A) and Dwight-Englewood (North, Non-Public B) all earned second seeds.
Demarest heads a packed bracket in North 1, Group 3 that includes Highlands, third-seeded Tenafly, fourth-seeded Montville and fifth-seeded Ramapo, which has been on a roll lately.
Fair Lawn, the No. 1 team in The Record’s North Jersey Top 20 is seeded second behind state power Livingston, which knocked the Cutters out in the North 1, Group 4 sectional final a year ago. Dwight-Englewood is lined up to face rival Saddle River Day in the semifinals in North Non-Public B for the right to likely face powerful Newark Academy, the top seed.
The tournament begins with Groups 1 and 3 scheduled to play their first round matches by Thursday, followed by Groups 2 and 4 which must play their first round matches by Friday.
