Despite losing star Angela Rugino to graduation , the Mariners of Toms River North return a talented team that starts as the top Girls team in the poll. With a 44 sec. split between 1-5 this team boasts no super star, but a very tight pack that will produce valuable points in big competiton. Randolph, on the other hand brings back a very strong top 3,but needs to shore up the 4-5 spots. With a healthy Sophia Ginez back in the mix to team up with soph Cayla Delpino, South Brunswick will be a formidible team. With 5 squads in the top 10, Group 4 will be a tough nut to crack this year. Do not count Voorhees out despite the loss of All-Timer Lanie Thompson to graduation and the Ducks of Oregon.
