All that’s left of the regular season are a few odds and ends plus games to fill out the slight lull before the playoffs begin on Tuesday.
Each of the teams in the Top 10 has a shot at taking home a sectional title and earning a berth into state championship weekend. All you have to do is keep winning.
Here is a final look at the top teams heading into the playoffs:
1. Haddonfield (record through Tuesday 13-1, last week 3)
The Bulldogs pulled off the upset of the season with an overtime win at Moorestown last week. Does anyone remember the last South Jersey team other than Shawnee to pull off that feat? Answer below.
Playoff opener: South Group 1 first-round vs. No. 16 Collingswood
2. Cherokee (15-0, 2)
South Jersey’s last remaining unbeaten has the last great test ahead of it on Friday against Lenape.
Playoff opener: South 4 vs. (16) Williamstown
3. Moorestown (11-2, 1)
The Quakers haven’t been ranked below No. 1 in South Jersey since 2010, which should make the South 3 playoff field very nervous.
Playoff opener: South 3 quarterfinal on June 5
4. Lenape (10-2, 4)
Lenape has a tasty playoff tuneup ahead on Friday when they host Cherokee for what could be a South 4 championship preview.
Playoff opener: South 4 vs. (14) Howell
5. Cherry Hill West (11-2, 5)
The breakout team on 2021, the Lions should see their first real test on the South 3 semifinals.
Playoff opener: South 3 vs. (14) Brick Memorial
6. Clearview (11-5, 6)
The Gloucester County Cup is on tap for Wednesday against West Deptford, then the No. 2 seed in south 3 thanks to a head-to-head win against Shawnee.
Playoff opener: South 3 vs. (15) Toms River East
7. Ocean City (10-3, 10)
Nothing shakes up the Top 10 quite like a head-to-head battle. Ocean City nipped Mainland on Senior Night to jump up to the No. 7 spot.
Playoff opener: South 3 vs. (13) Jackson
