Millburn High Named Top School in Group IV

Millburn High School grabs ShopRite Cup for having the top-performing teams in championship play.

Millburn High School proved again its not just about academics.

The New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association has recognized the high school as a top performing school in championship play.

Millburn finished first in Group IV in the ShopRite standings for the 2013-14 school year.

Throughout the school year, athletic programs accumulated points based on performance in championship play in the 32 NJSIAA-sanctioned sports. Schools also received three additional points per season whenever none of their student-athletes or coaches were disqualified during that season. 

At the conclusion of the fall, winter, and spring athletic seasons, the six schools with the most points in their respective categories received the 2012-2013 ShopRite Cup.

The final point standings are as follows:

  • Group I: Metuchen High School (Middlesex County) – 59 points  
  • Group II: Haddonfield Memorial High School (Camden County) – 55 points
  • Group III: Kingsway Regional High School (Gloucester County) – 71 points
  • Group IV: Millburn High School (Essex County) – 56 points 

“In its tenth consecutive year, the race for the ShopRite Cup has become as exciting a competition as there is in high school sports," said Steve Timko, NJSIAA executive director. “The Cup is a unique honor, because it recognizes the finest high school athletic programs in the state for collective effort. We congratulate this year’s six champions on another outstanding year.”

Sponsored by ShopRite and the NJSIAA, the ShopRite Cup recognizes the top high school sports program in each of New Jersey's six group classifications.
