The report says Ramsey has three All-State selections returning after a perfect 25-win campaign in 2025. Forward Hope Ernst, named to the first team, recorded 31 goals and 23 assists. She scored within the opening seconds of the Group 2 final, which Ramsey won 3-0 against Allentown.
Midfielder Lizzie Rubin contributed 22 goals and 30 assists, the latter reported as the state’s highest total. Her late goal against Madison helped send Ramsey to the final. Kendall Reid, a third-team selection, added 24 goals and 15 assists and scored in the championship match.
That blend of finishing and chance creation gives Ramsey a strong platform to defend its title. The challenge will be sustaining that production against teams now preparing specifically for its leading attackers.
Rutgers Prep also returns key pieces from a dominant season. The report says goalkeeper Jordan Reigrod made 65 saves and kept 15 clean sheets in 2025. Defender Sanda O’Neill, a first-team All-State pick, helped the side secure its fourth consecutive Non-Public B crown.
The team reportedly finished 21-0, conceded just six goals, and went 15 matches without allowing one. Those figures point to a defensive base that could again make Rutgers Prep difficult to break down.
At Paul VI, midfielder Kylie Berk is reported to return after recording 14 goals and three assists; forward Hunter Kitzing had 22 goals and 14 assists. Rumson-Fair Haven’s Jordyn Sullivan is also listed after a 32-goal season.
The opening weeks of 2026 will test whether those returning standouts can carry last season’s form into another title race. For Ramsey and Rutgers Prep, the first measure will be whether their established cores can deliver again when the new campaign begins.
