We’re spending the weeks leading up to the 2025 high school football season by counting down the North Jersey Public Top 20 rankings.

We’re also checking in with every non-public team, and every public team not ranked in the Public Top 20, as part of our State of the Program series.

You can find the links for each team below. This file will be continually updated as new Top 20 countdown and State of the Program stories are published.
