New No. 1 team in Division 3 headlines Michigan’s Week 4 girls prep soccer rankings
@Source: mlive.com
With six state titles and 11 championship game appearances, Detroit Country Day has established itself as one of the top girls soccer programs in Michigan. And the Yellow Jackets are on the short list of contenders to add another trophy to their display case this season. The Michigan High School Soccer Coaches Association released its Week 4 rankings Sunday, and Country Day claimed the No. 1 spot in Division 3 thanks to a strong résumé that includes wins over state-ranked opponents Farmington Hills Mercy, Flint Powers Catholic, Auburn Hills Oakland Christian and Plymouth Christian, but perhaps as big of a factor in the Yellow Jackets’ move was a tumble from the previous top team, Grand Rapids Catholic Central. The Cougars are 1-5 in their last six games and dropped to No. 3 in Division 3, but they can salvage some momentum on Thursday, when they host Division 2 No. 5 South Christian in a rivalry showdown. There were several other significant risers in the latest rankings, with Portage Central headlining Division 1, after the Mustangs used a 5-2 win over Troy to climb three spots to No. 6. Also in Division 1, Hartland moved up two spots to No. 9 following a 3-1 win over Brighton. In Division 2, New Boston Huron rose two spots after wins over Grosse Ile and Milan, and East Grand Rapids also moved up in the top 10 after win against Middleville Thornapple Kellogg. In Division 3, Milan moved up seven spots to No. 8 after tying perennial powers Williamston and Freeland on Saturday. In Division 3, Kalamazoo Christian climbed one spot to No. 4 following victories over Plymouth Christian and Byron Center Zion Christian, while North Muskegon made the biggest leap from No. 11 to No. 5 thanks to its current four-game winning streak.
