NKY Week 1 Recap

[kyag]

The first week of the season is officially in the books.  Many Northern Kentucky teams played 2-4 games this past week as I'm sure everyone was excited to get the season started.  I've attached the spreadsheet showing the results of the team's (verses NKY teams only) and will attempt to give a Week 1 ranking heading into week 2.

As a reminder I've allocated points the following way:

Win = 3 points

Shutout = 1 point

6 Goals or more scored = 1 point

Tie = 1 point

Week 1 Final Rankings

1. Ryle - Until they are defeated by a NKY school they will remain #1 on my list.

2. Cov Cath - Beat Conner on a set play to secure the 1-0 win.

3. Highlands - Go into Fort Mitchell and get the win verses Beechwood.

4. Cooper - Held St. Henry scoreless and scored 2 goals verses a NKY opponent.  

5. Beechwood - Beat up on Walton, tied Conner, and gave up a goal in a loss to Highlands.

6. Bishop Brossart - Went 2-0-1 for the week defeating Dixie Heights and drawing St. Henry.

7. Conner - Played Cov Cath tough but that doesn't get you wins and had to claw their way to a tie verses Beechwood.  I had to drop my Cougars till they show me something.  Putting them here cause of the competition they played in week 1.  

8. St. Henry - Loss to Cooper, draw with Brossart, and beat Boone County.

9. Campbell County - Yeah, they won 3 games this week (2 verses NKY teams), but the teams they beat I don't feel are there yet to improve their ranking.

10. Boone County - In my opinion won two games they should've and loss to St. Henry.

It will be interesting to see how Dixie Heights rebounds as they go 0-4-0 officially on the week giving up 9 goals while scoring only 2. Simon Kenton was a head scratcher to me...they have good players but take the L verses a young NCC team.   

Any errors I apologize for in advance...remember I'm an unpaid NKY soccer supporter!  lol  

Also feel free to give your rankings of how you see NKY soccer.

@kyag I can't really disagree with your current rankings.  I am as well interested to see what the Camels do versus a little bit better competition.  I would think they will rise in the rankings during the season after facing tougher teams.

I am pleased to see Highlands in the Top 5, I just want to see this team develop thru the season.  Looking forward to seeing them against your preseason sleeper Boone Co on Thursday.

What a fun first week!

The Madness has begun!
