Summary |
1 LW: 1 |
South Georgia Tormenta FC Record: 11-0-3 |
W, 2-1 at TCO T, 1-1 at MBM |
7/20: vs. VIL | Tormenta FC finished a killer four-game stretch to close out their season, all on the road, with a 2-0-2 mark to cap an unbeaten regular season and the No. 1 seed in the Southern Conference. They'll host the conference playoffs next weekend, opening on Friday as they host The Villages SC. |
2 LW: 5 |
SIMA Aguilas Record: 10-2-2 |
W, 1-0 vs. PB W, 5-0 vs. MIA |
7/20: vs. BVC | Another two shutouts concluded the season for the SIMA Aguilas as Southeast Division champions, with the joint-best defensive record in the league, allowing only six goals all year. After wrapping up their back-to-back titles, they'll travel to Tormenta FC where they'll host Brazos Valley in the semifinals. |
3 LW: 2 |
Brazos Valley Cavalry F.C. Record: 9-2-3 |
W, 3-0 at TXU W, 4-1 vs. TXU |
7/20: at SMA | An amazing end to the season saw Brazos Valley win their final six matches to blast to the Mid South Division title in just their second season, scoring at least three goals in every match during that run and earning their first playoff appearance as they'll face the SIMA Aguilas in Statesboro, GA, next Friday. |
4 LW: 4 |
The Villages SC Record: 9-2-3 |
W, 6-0 vs. MIA W, 5-0 vs. IMG |
7/20: at TRM | Three consecutive shutouts to finish their 2018 campaign, combined with a handful of dropped points from the tropics, clinched the wildcard berth for The Villages SC. They'll enter the playoffs and face conference round hosts Tormenta FC in the semifinals. |
5 LW: 3 |
Lakeland Tropics Record: 9-2-3 |
T, 1-1 at IMG W, 5-0 vs. WES |
N/A | That draw away at IMG Academy will haunt the Tropics this offseason, as those two missed points left the door open for The Villages SC and SIMA Aguilas to leap them and eliminate them from playoff contention. Not even a season-closing thrashing of Weston FC could save their hopes, needing help they didn't receive. |
