The 2012 high school boys volleyball state championship match could look very much like the 2011 version. Fans of coach Eric Maxwell’s Southern Regional team, however, would like to see a different outcome.

Last June, Fair Lawn defeated the Rams, who were the state champs the two previous years, in the title clash. If state rankings hold, the two squadswill meet once again this Thursday in the final match of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association’s Tournament of Champions.
