Summary
1 Seacoast United Phantoms
(7-0-0)
Next match: @ Pathfinder FC, 6:00 pm ET 6/21
Last Week:
1		 Still perfect in a tough division. Not much more to say. Ibrahim Conde’s goal on the stroke of half time kept the record spotless. They’re on a direct line to the playoffs.
2 Asheville City SC
(6-0-1)
Next match: vs Dothan United, 7:30 pm ET 6/22
Last Week:
2		 Another three goals, another clean sheet, and Asheville City SC are extremely close to clinching a spot in the playoffs. Nobody in the division comes close to the Blues.
3 Ocean City Nor’Easters
(6-0-0)
Next match: vs LVU Rush, 7 pm ET 6/21
Last Week:
3		 Still perfect, and they’re yet to win a game by fewer than two goals. The Nor’Easters are rolling, and there isn’t much, if anything, separating them from the top two.
4 Ventura County Fusion
(6-0-1)
Next match: @ Redlands FC, 7 pm PT 6/20
Last Week:
4		 The Fusion have found their groove. 14 goals scored in the last three matches, the most recent being a thumping victory over a talented AMSG side.
5 Ballard FC
(5-1-1)
Next match: @ United PDX, 7 pm PT 6/21
Last Week:
5		 Eight goals on the road on Sunday will certainly be inspiring for the run-in for the Bridges. That resounding victory brought their goal difference to +18 – ten more than second-place Tacoma Stars.
6 Long Island Rough Riders
(6-1-0)
Next match: vs Staten Island ASC, 8 pm ET 6/26		 3
Last Week:
9		 Ethan Dekel-Daks is having an excellent June, and he gave the Rough Riders another three points on Wednesday. Only two points separate Long Island and Hudson Valley.
7 Western Mass Pioneers
(6-1-1)
Next match: vs Boston City FC, 7 pm ET 6/21		 1
Last Week:
8		 At the moment, the race behind Seacoast United is being led by Western Mass Pioneers. It’s time to start looking forward to their season closer, at home against Vermont Green FC.
8 Lionsbridge FC
(5-1-1)
Next match: vs Patuxent FA, 7 pm ET 6/22		 2
Last Week:
6		 A slight blip for the Chesapeake leaders, drawing at home to NoVa FC. The Bridge are struggling at home, getting one point from six, while netting all 15 of their other league points on the road
9 Brave SC
(5-0-2)
Next match: @ Brooke House FC, 7 pm ET 6/26

After crawling out of the gate, with two draws to begin the season, the Buffalo have rattled off five straight wins against teams up and down the table, both home and away. They’ve scored 18 in that time while only conceding two. Brave SC are on fire.
10 Vermont Green FC
(6-1-2)
Next match: vs Boston City FC, 7 pm ET 6/26		 1
Last Week:
11		 Finishing remains an issue for Vermont Green. Less than three weeks ago, they put seven past AC Connecticut – in four games since then, they’ve managed five goals, including in another game against AC Connecticut. Seven goals isn’t the expectation, but fans are often left waiting for the magic moment, and Adam Pfeifer will want his team to put games away earlier than that.
11 Little Rock Rangers
(6-0-2)
Next match @ Blue Goose SC, 7 pm CT, 6/29		 1
Last Week:
10		 If the Rangers were only allowed to play games that lasted one half, they’d have one goal this season. As it stands, they have 12. They’ll want to start games quicker than they currently are – but just as importantly, they continue to defend well and win games.
12 Flint City Bucks
(6-0-2)
Next match: vs Oakland County FC, 7 pm ET 6/22

A quick break from the Power Rankings after two consecutive draws, the Bucks broke off five straight wins, including two against Midwest United, and they’re right back on top of the Great Lakes. .
13 Peoria City
(4-0-2)
Next match: Next match vs St. Charles FC, 7:30 pm CT 6/22
Last Week:
13		 Samy Slimi’s heroic double penalty save was a moment in Peoria City history. It’s something you show your kids a video of. They still lead the Heartland Division – what lies in store for them in the back half of the summer?
14 Hudson Valley Hammers
(5-1-1)
Next match: vs Manhattan SC, 7 pm ET 6/22		 7
Last Week:
7		 A crushing 4-0 loss on the road against FC Motown, and their work is cut out for them as they chase down the Rough Riders for the Metro divisional crown.
15 AHFC Royals
(5-0-2)
Next match: vs Twin City Toucans, 7 pm CT 6/24

The Royals trailed Corpus Christi on Wednesday four different times. Four different times they overturned that deficit. A 5-5 draw isn’t the prettiest result, but it’s their first dropped points in six matches. The Royals are still in form.
