With a huge win over a cross-town rival, DECATUR FC moves into the No. 1 spot in the South. The question is whether the second-year club can hold onto that spot, as competition begins to ratchet up. In at No. 2 is Jacksonville Armada FC thanks to an unbelievable three-goal comeback in the last five minutes of the match to draw No. 6 West Florida Flames. Two-time WPSL champions, Pensacola FC, broke the South Region Top 10 with a shutout win to start the season, along with No. 9 Carolina FC, making its first appearance on the heels of a 2-1 win over NCFC, and Chattanooga FC in at No 10., which could be a serious contender for the South Region title after its off-season overhaul.
