The Connecticut high school girls soccer scene just kicked off, and let me tell you, Greenwich and Foran are already sending a loud, clear message! Both squads are absolutely locked into the No. 1 spots in their respective coaches polls after Week 1 of the regular season, signaling who’s boss right out of the gate. This isn’t just holding serve; it’s an early season statement that has everyone talking.
Class LL/L: Greenwich Dominates, New Faces Crash the Party
Greenwich is straight up owning the Class LL/L poll, pulling in a massive 13 of 14 first-place votes. That’s nearly unanimous, people! They’re sitting pretty at 2-0-0, and Amity is right there with them at No. 2, also sporting a perfect 2-0-0 record. But don’t sleep on Mercy, they’ve gone 3-0-0 already and even snagged that one rogue first-place vote, landing them at No. 5. St. Joseph and Ridgefield are also crushing it at 2-0-0, rounding out the rest of that top five.
The real shake-up? Farmington and Glastonbury just crashed the top 10 party, moving in at No. 9 and No. 10 respectively, both with 1-0-0 starts. That means New Canaan and Masuk, who were in the top 10, are officially out. Other teams like Notre Dame Prep (2-0-0) and Simsbury (1-0-0) moved up too. It’s early, but the battle for those coveted spots is already getting wild.
Class M/S: Foran’s Unanimous Flex Changes Everything
Over in Class M/S, Foran isn’t playing around. They didn’t just get most of the first-place votes; they grabbed all 15 of them! ALL OF THEM! At 2-0-0, they’re looking utterly dominant, and you gotta wonder if anyone can even touch them right now. Northwest Catholic is holding tight at No. 2, even with a 1-0-0 start, which is respectable. East Hampton, Lewis Mills, and Barlow are also in that top five, with East Hampton and Barlow both looking solid at 2-0-0.
Granby Memorial is the lone new face in this top 10, jumping in at No. 7 after a 2-1-0 start. Sorry, Canton, you’re out of the top rankings for now. While Foran is clearly the team to beat, teams like Old Saybrook (2-1-0), Bacon Academy (0-0-2), Hand (1-1-0), and Morgan (1-1-1) are still figuring things out. This poll is already showing us who’s ready to run away with it and who’s got some work to do.
This is just Week 1, people, but the top of the Connecticut girls soccer polls is already sending a clear message: the bar has been set, and it’s high. Can anyone step up and challenge Greenwich or Foran’s early season dominance? The next few weeks are gonna be electric as these teams try to keep that momentum rolling, or someone tries to knock them off the top!
