  "account": "Each week, The Journal News/lohud presents The Top Team of the Week poll, sponsored by White Plains Hospital. This poll is open exclusively to varsity sports teams, excluding football, from Westchester, Rockland, and Putnam counties. The poll is available for nomination from athletic departments and team coaches, with the option for readers to vote on the most deserving team. The poll runs from Sunday to Tuesday throughout the school year and closes at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, September 29. Past winners include Rye girls volleyball, Clarkstown South girls soccer, and Clarkstown South boys soccer.\n\nNow, let's meet the nominees for this week. First up is Blind Brook girls volleyball, coached by Gina Carlone. The team went 3-0 with sweeps against Woodlands, Albertus Magnus, and a 3-1 win over Yonkers Montessori. Carlone achieved her 100th career win with the victory over Yonkers Montessori.\n\nNext, we have Byram Hills girls soccer, the Bobcats, who have had an impressive season so far. With only five games played in 2025, they are already 6-0. They secured victories against Harrison (3-0 on Friday), Ursuline (2-0 on Wednesday), and Rye Neck (8-2 on Tuesday).\n\nThird, Hendrick Hudson girls tennis, the Sailors, are on a remarkable streak. Coach Brad Fredman's team has won eight consecutive matches, including games against Walter Panas, Woodlands, and Tappan Zee. In their last week, they claimed 15 wins out of 15 matches, dropping only five total games.",
