Lacrosse: North Jersey rankings welcome two new teams, plus latest individual stat leaders
The first week of the lacrosse season brought storms, an earthquake and even a solar eclipse.
So it only makes sense that the North Jersey rankings underwent a shakeup compared to the preseason forecast.
The big change on the boys side comes with the arrival of Pascack Valley, which went into Wednesday with the No. 1 offense in Bergen County and the region's top point-scorer in Donnie Duffus. The other newcomer is the Rutherford girls, who are ranked for the first time in the program's three-year history.
With the first 10 days now in the books, here's a look at the landscape across North Jersey.
