A perfect 8-0-0 season and the Great River Division title was enough to keep Columbus Eagles FC in the No. 1 spot for a second week in a row. Clarkstown Soccer Club jumped two spots into the No. 2 position with an unbeaten record en route to the Metropolitan Conference title.
Down one spot after a shock loss, Sporting CT can climb with a win in its final two regular season games of the year this week. Also dropping one is Commonwealth Division champs Reading United A.C., while across the conference, SJEB FC moves into the Top 5 with its division title in hand.
After a terrific inaugural season, Internationals SC claimed the Lake Erie Division and the No. 6 spot, up one from No. 7 now held by Merrimack Valley Hawks FC, up one from last week. And better late than never, previously unranked HEX FC Tempest debuts in the East Region Top 10 at No. 10 thanks to a stunning 1-0 win over now No. 9 PA Classics.
