HILLSDALE -- Pascack Valley is the defending Bergen County girls basketball champion, but was supposed to be vulnerable this season. The Indians lost two Division 1 starters to graduation and seven other seniors from last year's team that won the outright Group 2 state championship.

They lost lost three games early this season, one to Holy Angels in the Joe Poli Holiday Tournament they host, one to Pasack Hills, their first to their rival since 1991, and they lost to Ramapo for the first time since 1983 (mistakenly reported as 1993 in the accompanying Audio Report but I don't feel like going back to change it).

But after PV's win over Tenafly in the Round of 16 on Saturday, the Indians now stand at 17-3 on the season and still have all the titles that they play for within reach.
