D.C. Beltway Area: Girls' Soccer Top 10

Girls’ Soccer Top 10.
*Rankings and records as of April 14, 2 p.m

1. Robinson (5-0-1)
The
Rams were 21-1-0 last season en route to capturing the Virginia AAA
state title and returned nine starters from that team. Robinson has
outscored its opponents 17-4 this season and only has a 2-2 road draw
with No. 2 W.T. Woodson keeping it from perfection. It faces No. 3
Chantilly on Friday.
2. W.T. Woodson (5-0-1)
The Cavaliers only graduated four players from last year’s team that went 12-3-2, but are without Florida State-bound senior Niki Mercier,
who will miss the season with a knee injury. Woodson tied No. 1
Robinson, 2-2, on April 1 — no fooling — and has a marquee match with
No. 6 McLean on April 21.
3. Chantilly (5-0-1)
The
Chargers have outscored their opponents 20-2 this season, but 16 of
those goals came in the first three games. Chantilly faces No. 1
Robinson on the road on Friday.
4. Broad Run (5-0-1)
The Spartans went 24-0-0 last season en route to the Virginia AA State title and have five college signees: Holly King (Florida), Valerie Powell (Arkansas), Kelly Evans (Old Dominion), Caitlin Hunter (UNC-Wilmington) and Taylor Starr (Tusculum). Broad Run has outscored its opponents 14-2 this year.
5. Loudoun Valley (6-0-0)
The Vikings have torched their first six opponents, winning by a combined 23-1 margin.
6. McLean (6-0-0)
The
Highlanders have posted a Northern Region-best 30 goals this season,
while allowing just six, but a 15-0 season-opening win at Wakefield
skews that statistic. McLean faces South Lakes and Jefferson this week
before squaring off with No. 2 Woodson on April 21.
7. Oakton (5-0-0)
No
team has gotten within three goals of the Cougars this season as they
have outscored their opponents by a collective 28-2. Oakton closes its
season with four consecutive games teams either in the Top 10 or those
that also received votes.
8. Woodbridge (3-2-1)
The
Vikings knocked off defending state runner-up Battlefield, 4-0, earlier
this season, but fell to defending state champion No. 1 Robinson, 4-1,
on March 16. Woodbridge plays Potomac (Va.) and Forest Park this week.
9. West Springfield (5-1-1)
The
Spartans, who returned seven starters, have won five consecutive games
after opening the season with a 1-1 draw with Stone Bridge and a 1-0
loss to Centreville. During its winning streak, West Springfield has
outscored its opponents 13-0.
10. Washington-Lee (6-1-0)
The
Generals have marched out to a surprising start with amazing defense,
allowing only six goals through seven goals. But three of those allowed
came in a 3-0 loss to No. 9 West Springfield on March 25.
