New York, New Jersey State Champions Join High School Girls' National Top 25

Victor (N.Y.), Penfield (N.Y.) and Summit (N.J.) all moved into the latest USA Lacrosse High School Girls' National Top 25 on the strength of state championship victories to conclude their years.

No. 8 Bayport-Blue Point (N.Y.) sustained its winning ways all the way to the end to capture the Class C state championship. Ava Meyn, Aubrie Eisfeld, Kailey Bruckner and Emma Shanahan led the Phantoms to a convincing win over Queensbury (N.Y.). It’s their second state title in the last three years.

It was business as usual for No. 12 Darien (Conn.). The perennial power used a big rally in the second half to beat New Canaan (Conn.) by a goal for their 21st state title.

Victor (N.Y.) snapped a 16-game winning streak by Garden City (N.Y.) to win the Class B state championship. The No. 19 Blue Devils reeled off six straight wins at the right time, ending with Morgan Livingston, Maia Pronti, McKenna Anderson and Allie Pisano leading them to a 12-9 state final win.

Victor was the last team that Penfield (N.Y.) lost to before going on a run to their first Class A state title. No. 20 Penfield was a decisive winner over Suffern (N.Y.) in the final behind Avery Fordham, Jenna Capozzi, Emma Alexander and Peyton Rothfuss in their final game to complete a 10-game winning streak. The semifinal saw them avenge a season-opening loss to Cicerto-North Syracuse (N.Y.).

No. 21 Summit (N.J.) also claimed a state title. The Hilltoppers used a pair of thrilling wins to earn the Group 3 state championship with Parker Febo the hero with back-to-back game-winners. Summit ended the season on an 11-game winning streak.

No. 25 Cold Spring Harbor (N.Y.) holds onto its spot with a win for the Class D state title. Ryan Reynolds, Ruby Spielberger, Olivia Mulada, Maggie Spehr and Kelly Callaghan (Chicago) led the Seahawks to their second straight state title and fourth in the last six years.
