The CIAC girls soccer tournaments kick off Friday, and let me tell you, these final GametimeCT power rankings are sending us into the postseason with some serious drama. St. Joseph isn’t moving from the top spot, holding firm at No. 1 after snagging their fourth FCIAC championship in five years. You just can’t argue with that kind of consistency, right? But the real fireworks? Glastonbury, baby! They rocketed up three spots to No. 2 after absolutely owning the CCC championship. That’s a massive move, and it changes the entire landscape heading into these elimination games.
The Untouchables and the Upsetters
St. Joseph is clearly the team to beat, showing an incredible run of dominance over half a decade. But Glastonbury’s rise is no joke. Moving three places is huge, especially this late in the season, and winning the CCC championship proves they earned it. Ridgefield, meanwhile, lost their first game in the FCIAC final, yet still managed to stay at No. 3. That tells you how strong they’ve been all season. Then you’ve got Greenwich, who slipped to No. 4 after Ridgefield knocked them out in the FCIAC semifinals. This top tier is stacked, and any one of these teams could lift the trophy.
New Faces and Shocking Falls
Down the rankings, things get even spicier. Notre Dame Prep is holding strong at No. 5 after winning their second straight SWC title, proving they’re a force to be reckoned with. Simsbury, though, took a hit, falling to No. 6 after Farmington pulled off an upset in the CCC semifinals. That’s gotta sting, but it just shows anything can happen. Amity, at No. 7, is on a mission for a Class LL championship after grabbing the SCC crown. And listen to this: undefeated East Hampton climbed two spots to No. 8 after their flawless run in the Shoreline Conference. Talk about momentum! We’ve also got two teams back in the mix: Pomperaug, who made it to the SWC final, slots in at No. 9, and Farmington, riding that upset win over Simsbury, grabs the No. 10 spot.
These rankings are locked in for the final two weeks of the 2026 season, and with the CIAC tournaments about to get wild, every single game matters. The final GametimeCT rankings will drop only after all the tournament action wraps up. Get ready, because it’s going to be a wild ride!
