Bloomfield, with standout guard AJ Cruz (3), may trail local rival Montclair in terms of power points, but the Bengals defeated the Mounties, 55-44, Thursday night, to move up to No. 8 in a very wide-open North 1, Group 4 bracket with Montclair remaining at No. 1 in power point tabulations. Mounties are led by Mason Determan (above) while they will look to right the ship in states. (Photos by Jerry Simon and Ayden Acebo) (continued from page 1) Time will certainly tell, but before the seeds are even official, a prediction on what group finals could be likely to have an Essex team in them would certainly appear to favor Group 1 since Shabazz and Arts are among the most dangerous, small-school programs in that group, and perhaps in Group 2 where a somewhat underrated Newark Collegiate could very well make a deep run in this year’s state tourney. North 1, Group 3 includes dangerous teams such as 1-Tenafly (20-1) and 2-Teaneck (19-3). It will all become official following the NJSIAA basketball tourney seeding meeting on Tuesday and then the release of the brackets a short time later. The public-school group finals will return to Rutgers’ Jersey Mike’s Arena with Groups 2 and 4 on Saturday, March 14, and Groups 1 and 3 on Sunday, March 15. The Non-Public state finals are Thursday, March 12, also at Rutgers. Follow Sideline Chatter on 'X' @Chattermeister
