Girls volleyball: Final Top 20 rankings, standings for 2022 season in North Jersey
The NJSIAA girls volleyball finals have moved away from North Jersey, yet that did little to thwart the dominance of area teams.
Four Bergen County schools captured state championships Sunday at Franklin High School: Immaculate Heart (16th all-time), Bogota (12th), Tenafly (third) and Immaculate Conception (first).
Although the numbers have evened out since girls volleyball became a statewide fall sport in 1998 – counties further south played in the spring before then – Bergen teams have won 114 of the 181 state titles awarded (63 percent).
