The Big North resumes divisional girls’ volleyball action today and a key battle is Fair Lawn, ranked 13th in The Record’s North Jersey Top 15, hosting No. 12 Wayne Valley.
In the race for the Big North Independence Division title, Wayne Valley holds a one-game lead over Fair Lawn, thanks to last month’s 25-20, 25-20 win over the defending champion.
Wayne Valley (7-2 overall, 4-0 Independence) is riding a two-game losing streak, though, while Fair Lawn (11-4, 3-1) has won eight of nine since the loss to the Indians.
