The NJSIAA seeded the Boys Tennis State tournament Monday and three North Jersey teams were rewarded with No. 1 seeds in their section.
Hasbrouck Heights (North 1, Group 1), Tenafly (North 1, Group 3) and Leonia (North 2, Group 2) all received the top seed in their sections.
Park Ridge (North 1, Group 1), Pascack Hills (North 1, Group 2), Old Tappan (North 1, Group 3), Don Bosco (North Non-Public A) and Dwight-Englewood (North Non-Public B) all received the second seed in their sections.
The most interesting section appears to be North 1, Group 3 where Tenafly (1), Old Tappan (2), Demarest (3) and Northern Highlands (5) have been beating each other up all season and will likely do the same in the tournament.
Fair Lawn, Ridgewood, Bergen Tech and Clifton are seeded from 3 to 6 in North 1, Group 4 behind top-seeded Livingston and No. 2 Montclair, which just beat Ridgewood. The Maroons can make a statement on Tuesday before the tournament even starts when they host Fair Lawn in a key Big North crossover battle.
In North, Non-Public B, third-seeded Saddle River Day could get another shot at Dwight-Englewood, which beat the Rebels, 3-2, last month, in the semifinals if both teams win their quarterfinal match. Dwight has been playing up to its competition with wins over Bergen Tech and Fair Lawn this year as well as a huge victory over state-ranked Delbarton last week. Saddle River Day and Dwight still have to meet again in a regular season match as well.
