Summary |
1 LW: 1 |
Reading United AC Record: 9-0-1 |
W, 2-0 at OCN W, 1-0 vs. LI |
6/29: vs. EVE | Arguably the two most significant wins in Reading United's season. After a road draw earlier in the year against the Rough Riders, Reading picked up a huge three points at home against their primary contenders for the Mid Atlantic Division title. |
2 LW: 4 |
Black Rock FC Record: 6-1-3 |
W, 5-1 vs. WMP W, 2-1 at WMP |
6/27: vs. ACC 6/30: vs. GPS |
Two wins in a home-and-home against the Western Mass Pioneers give Black Rock FC a significant cushion at the top of the Northeast Division. A looming weekend match against GPS Portland Phoenix will go a long way towards deciding the division champion. |
3 LW: 2 |
Long Island Rough Riders Record: 7-2-1 |
W, 2-1 at LVU L, 0-1 at REA |
6/30: vs. NY | Two tough road matches ended in split results for the Rough Riders, first picking up a win at Lehigh Valley before dropping a crucial match at Reading. Despite the latter loss, the Rough Riders remain in great playoff position as the Eastern Conference wild card. |
4 LW: 3 |
New York Red Bulls U23 Record: 6-2-0 |
W, 6-0 at LVU | 6/25: at FAE 6/30: at LI |
A loss for the Rough Riders means points gained for the Red Bulls U23 in the Eastern Conference playoff race, but only if they make use of that game-in-hand this week. With one of their two matches away at the Rough Riders, it'll be make or break. |
5 LW: 5 |
Myrtle Beach Mutiny Record: 5-2-3 |
T, 3-3 at NC | 6/30: vs. LB | A high-scoring draw against North Carolina FC reflects better on the Mutiny, who were the road team in that contest. One point off the former for the division lead - and with a game-in-hand - the Mutiny edge the last spot in this week's power rankings. |
