However, it's often hard to compare state tournaments to invitationals, as last year based on invites North was arguably better, but South still ended up winning states and moving on to Nationals.

This was the last invitational for the NJ teams this season. My predictions have significantly changed after seeing the results.

1. WWPN (68)
2. WWPS (84)
3. Hillsborough (123)
4. Montgomery (129)
5. South Brunswick (137)

I can see 3, 4, and 5 go in any way.

I stand corrected with my previous statement. I honestly now believe that WWPN will sweep NJ States, as mentioned in the SOUP forum. After superscoring Penn results (including the consideration that some were absent fro the Science Bowl), North proves to be the dominant team in NJ. South didn't bring their full team to Penn. But even if they did, I don't think they will be that close to North.

Hillsborough definitely surprised me at Penn. It seems that their placements keep getting better throughout the season. If they continue this growth, I can definitely see them get 3rd at States, beating Montgomery and South Brunswick. They have been averaging pretty well at competitions and keep getting better at each comp. Montgomery, on the other hand, has been really inconsistent. Despite their placements at Yale, it seems that the same few events have been struggling. Their Penn results definitely show weakness in their builds. South Brunswick has been decent overall. They have certain events that they are good at. These three placements can go either way in my opinion.
