On the girls’ side, both Haddonfield and Haddon Township enter the postseason with high expectations,

The Hawks will have to do it the hard way, as they are a No. 10 seed and will open on the road against No. 7 Pitman.

Haddon Township (9-9-1) has struggled of late, dropping its past two contests, while Pitman has won eight in a row. The good news for the Hawks is that they defeated the Panthers, 2-1, in the season-opener.

Haddon Heights is the No. 1 seed in Group 1.

Haddonfield, meanwhile, will wait out Tuesday’s first-round matchup between No. 8 Cinnaminson and No. 9 Sterling to find out who it will face in the quarterfinals. The Bulldawgs (15-1-1) are the overwhelming favorite to win a South Jersey title, with a rare slipup against Cherry Hill East – a Group 4 school – as the only blemish on their record.

Other Group 2 hopefuls include Lower Cape May (No. 2), Woodstown (No. 3) and Colonial Conference rival West Deptford (No. 4).
