Seven of eight area schools have advanced to the sectionals which start Feb. 6.
Here are the tentative NJSIAA wrestling final power point rankings for sections involving local teams through matches of Jan. 28, the cutoff date for qualification for the NJSIAA Team Tournament.
The top eight teams in each section qualify for the state team tourney which begins Feb. 6.
The rankings reflect each team’s top 10 matches (as determined by power points only).
Only a team's top 10 matches power point-wise are reflected. Final pairings will be determined by adding missing matches and taking head-to-head results into account. Teams may only move up one spot (ahead of the team directly ahead) as a results of adjustments (as in North 2 Group 3 where Cranford owns a win over Warren Hills).
In case of ties, tie breakers are head-to-head results, overall power ranking (including all matches), wins and losses of common opponents, and teams’ overall winning percentage. If still tied, the seeding committee will vote.
Pairings will be official Tuesday morning at the tournament seeding meeting for the tournament at NJSIAA headquarters.
