    Still three games to play. The top five standings will change before end of season.

      Rivers and Lawrence seem like a lock.

      Hard to know whether its Nobles, Milton or BB&N. Milton has the earliy in the season loss to Thayer and a more recent tie with St. Pauls.

      Nobles has yet to face Milton or Rivers and only has quality wins against 1 top 6 team (St. Marks) having lost to Lawrence and BB&N.

      BB&N would raise their ranking if they're able to finish strong including making waves with LA on the last day.

            Do you realize how ridiculous that comment is? "His birthdate has been listed as 1997 since AT LEAST 2009"!!! Shouldn't his date of birth be listed as his date of birth, FROM HIS DATE OF BIRTH - pretty consistently????[/QUOTE]

            The post was in response to a claim that his birthdate had shifted multiple times in recent years. And, in response to your post, yes, under normal circumstances in this country, one would expect a person's birthdate not to change over time. However, when one departs under duress from a strife-torn nation in which definitive records of birth do not exist, birthdates may retain a degree of fluidity.

              We all know Ak is the best player in the league just stop finding excuses for why he is so good.

                IMO, there should be 2 (maybe 3) ISL teams in New Englands. really hard to judge by records. Overall the ISL league is weak this year so the top teams have very few real challenges, and even the good (but not great teams) run up impressive records. Then look at a team like Williston which has by comparison a poor record but losses and ties coming against good-excellent Class A schools (Loomis , Choate, Taft, etc.) [I haven't seen Williston play this year so I can't comment on their quality specifically]. But from what I've seen this year, there are lots of Class Bs out there that would trounce most of the ISLs, so that giving them more than 2 slots would be a mistake. Just being honest (and my kid plays ISL, and not on the top 2)).

                  Anyone see the Rivers St. George's game today? Result, since it still isn't on the ISL website?

                    Clearly you do not know much then. There should be at least three tourney teams and probably four this year. Lawrence and Rivers should be in for sure and Nobles will likely be the third team in the class B tourney. Milton or BB&N will stand good chance of getting in the class As as the 3rd or 4th team out of eastern NE. The best ISLs will be the best teams in the class B tourney othe than south kent, and rivers already beat south kent. St Marks could easily be a 4th class B school as well. Milton and BBN may have a tough time competing with the top class A schools but with games against Worcester, NMH, Andover and Exeter on their schedules they are clearly looking to play the best teams they can. Either team could earn an upset if they make it in.

                        RL vs. Middlesex

                        Haven't seen a game fought with so much heart in years. Excellent goalkeeping both sides. Exciting goal by PB to cap off a thrilling performance.

                        RL 1 - 0 Middlesex

                        RL looks to ride the rush into next week with a home game against St. Sebs on Wednesday and looks to shock the world against Rivers.

                          New rankings are out:

                          1. Berkshire
                          2. Lawrence
                          3. Rivers
                          4. Loomis
                          5. Worcester
                          6. Kent
                          7. Hotchkiss
                          8. South Kent
                          9. Milton
                          10, Nobles

                          I don't get why Loomis stays above Hotchkiss after losing 3-0. Also still don't get why Kimball Union and Andover aren't in this list.

                            Nobles is class B for boys soccer? I didn't know that. Certainly Milton should get in before BBN for class A? They have one bad game on their record against Thayer early in the season but have beaten Rivers and BBN.

                              its all about records vs other class A teams and whether or not those teams are above or below .500, right now both teams are hoping BH takes St. Marks and govs to give them both 5 points, BBN better hope karma doesn't catch up with them.

                                milton also made their job a little harder by tying exeter and losing to andover, both class A teams.
