A RAM fan comments on the February 6th rankings from NJ.com:

NJ.com has given their rankings as of February 6, 2020 for the Top 10 teams for Morris County and New Jersey Public A, Public B, Public C, and non-Public high schools, so I thought I’d see how the Randolph Rams played against the ranked teams this season.

MCSSIHL (Morris County Secondary School Ice Hockey League):

  • 1) Morristown Beard (16-3-1): Rams Win 5-3 (12/3/19) and Loss 3-4 (12/27/19)

Notes:

  • Note A: #17 Andrew Low who plays for Beard (and scored the game winning goal against the Rams on 12/27/19) has an article about him at NJ.com. He has been active in the fight against cancer helping to have almost $60,000 donated for Kids Ice Cancer. Andrew Koop wrote the article and as always it is well-written.

  • Note B: The overall team records have been updated as of 2/9/2020 and several are different from the February 6th rankings.
  • Note C: NJ.com just published the new Top 20 for New Jersey and the only changes were the top three teams swapping with Bergen Catholic taking first place and Christian Brothers and Don Bosco sliding down to second and third. BC defeated #6 Seton Hall 4-3 and #1 Christian Brothers 3-2 last week. Randolph has kept tenth in the state rankings all season. They will be tested by #6 Seton Hall today at Codey at 4:15pm!
