This week's statewide soccer rankings are littered with Triangle-area teams.

All rankings come from Eurosportsscoreboard.com.

4-A: Jordan remains the leader among the Triangle's 4-A squds, ranked second in the state behind defending champ Greensboro Page. The Falcons are 6-0-0.

The Fuquay-Varina Bengals (7-0-0) of the Tri-Nine Conference are still unscored on, unbeaten and untied this year and they moved up to No. 5 this week.

Leesville Road (5-1) is the top-ranked team out of the Cap-8 Conference at No. 8. The Pride is followed closely behind at No. 9 by Green Hope (6-2) of the Tri-Nine Conference.

Millbrook (6-0-2) is 10th, East Chapel Hill (4-1-1) is 11th and Athens Drive (6-1-1) made its debut in the rankings at 14th.
