Mount Sinai (N.Y.) and Northport (N.Y.) both advanced in the rapidly unfolding New York state playoffs, and both enter the top 10 of the Nike/US Lacrosse High School Girls’ National Top 25 this week.

The No. 5 Mustangs rallied late to defeat Rocky Point (N.Y.) in the Suffolk Class C semifinals, while the No. 6 Tigers remained undefeated this season with a win over Riverhead (N.Y.) in the Suffolk Class A semifinals. Each team moved up seven spots to their respective positions.

West Genesee (N.Y.) and Fayetteville-Manlius (N.Y.), meanwhile, join the rankings at No. 21 and No. 24, respectively.
