The top two teams in the PA/NJ Region Top 20 Rankings this week remain Eastern Regional (NJ) and Emmaus (PA).  We are beginning to ask the question of when might Emmaus get the nod in front of Eastern Regional, who has been MAX Field Hockey’s #1 Nationally ranked team for 3-straight years and since we began doing High School Rankings.  No doubt two incredibly talented teams- each ranked #1 and #2 in our National Rankings as well.  Penn Manor perhaps was the most tested team of the week and also deserving of being in that same #1 conversation.  They faced then #16 ranked Hershey and then ranked #7 Lower Dauphin.  The Comets registered convincing wins in both games (3-0 over Hershey and 4-0 over Lower Dauphin).  They maintain the #3 spot this week, but have certainly gotten our attention and we will be watching them closely to see if they may be deserving of an even higher placement.

The two newcomers to this week’s Top 20 rankings are our PA/NJ Region Team of the Week Greenwood (PA), who enter at the #18 spot, and Shawnee (NJ), who enter at the #19 spot.  Ocean City (NJ) and Merion Mercy Academy (PA) drop out of the Top 20.
