The Maroons unearthed the one jewel that was missing from their Triple Crown last season.

Ridgewood High School won the 2013 North 1, Group 4 and Bergen County Relays titles for boys indoor track but wound up second in the Big North Freedom Division.

Monday at The Armory Track Center in Manhattan, Ridgewood reclaimed the top spot in the division with a convincing 178-82 1/2-70 victory over Indian Hills and Hackensack at the Big North championship meet. The Maroon girls team scored 72 1/2 points to place fourth.

“Considering Hackensack won [the Freedom title] last year, the boys were anxious to get back out there and go after it,” RHS head coach Josh Saladino said.

THE RECORD

NEW YORK – Nearly five hours of competition in the first four divisions of the Big North meet Monday night led to several conclusions:

1. Ridgewood has an outstanding and deep boys team.

2. Zack Bazile of St. Joseph and Chris Estrella of Ridgefield Park are very, very good athletes who not many may have heard of yet, but everyone may be talking about them by the time this season is over.

3. The rest of the divisions have at least two very good teams.

The Ridgewood boys team scored the only runaway win of the night, taking command of the Freedom Division in the meet’s second event and going on to a 178-82 1/2 win over Indian Hills. They were joined by Bergen Catholic (United), Ramsey (Patriot) andRidgefield Park (American) as boys teams winners.
