Senior Cayce Kavakich helped Cedar Grove make history with her 3-hit shutout and 14 strikeouts as Panthers cruised past Audubon, 6-0, for third straight Group 1 title joining Steinert, which won in Group 3, as the only two public schools to win three consecutive group crowns.

The Panthers also won the Super Essex Conference-American Division championship while defeating Non-Public A state champion Mount St. Dominic twice in conference play, although coach Rob Stern’s Lions defeated its SEC archrival in the Essex County Tournament final.
It was quite the season for players such as Kavakich who surpassed 1,000 strikeouts for her superb career while fanning 204 this spring. Fernandez set a new single-season school record when she delivered her 46th RBI in her team’s Group 1 state semifinal 9-1 triumph vs. Indian Hills. Florre, the team’s superb second baseman, bounced back from a knee injury that sidelined her for the entire 2024 season with 50 runs scored and 25 stolen bases.
It's a Panthers team that played a solid independent schedule, won its conference, and proceeded to finish a 3-year run for the ages in New Jersey Group 1 softball.
