1. Fairfield Prep (3-0-0)- Outscoring a quality list of opponents (ND Fairfield, South Windsor, Ridgefield) 16-4 in three games .
2. Notre Dame- West Haven (4-0-0)- Coach Bill Derosa has to be happy with this start. Like Prep, four victories aren't against slouches (New Canaan, Greenwich, Simsbury & Darien).
3. Hamden (2-0-0)- Going to catch flack in my circles putting NDWH ahead of them. Need to see more out of Hamden after lackluster win against Darien and blow out of Amity.
4. Xavier (3-0-0)- Could be a very dark horse this year, but love the start for the X.
5. West Haven (3-0-0)- Not ranked by many entering the season, West Haven off to a hot start behind two hat tricks and eleven points from senior Mike Troiano.
6. Ridgefield (1-1-0)- Nice redeemer against Glastonbury after a disappointing shutout to Prep to start the year.
7. East Haven (3-0-1)- Not exactly the same quality of opponents that Prep and ND WH can claim but undefeated after four games and five goals from sophomore Stephen Marsico have Yellow Jacket fans happy.
8. South Windsor (2-1-0)- Again, Prep the only loss so far in a game where the Bobcats got in a hole they couldn't dig out of. Should be right there this season.
9. Glastonbury (1-1-0)- A split with Ridgefield and St. Joe's, two up and coming FCIAC squads are nothing to be heartbroken about.
10. North Haven (2-1-0)- A tough 1-0 loss to a good Xavier squad is all that's keeping the Indians from being undefeated.
