3 TOR

3 TRM

Rank	Team	Change	Summary
1	Lansing Ignite FC (12-5-10) Week 27: -- Week 28: MAD	1 Last Week: 2	Lansing didn’t see league action last week, taking a 7-0 exhibition victory against a local amateur side instead, but thanks to Greenville’s loss they’re primed for the No. 2 seed.
2	Greenville Triumph SC (12-8-7) Week 27: W, 3-2 @TUC, L, 0-1 ORL Week 28: @TRM	1 Last Week: 1	Triumph SC did the hard part in winning on the road against Tucson, then fell in its home finale against last-place Orlando. Expecting a reaction against Tormenta FC, but it might be in vain.
3	Forward Madison FC (11-9-7) Week 27: D, 1-1 @TUC Week 28: @LAN	Last Week: 3	Madison is undefeated in its last four games, but the pressure’s going to be on when it visits Lansing on Saturday after being unable to close out its playoff place in Tucson.
4	Chattanooga Red Wolves SC (10-8-9) Week 27: W, 2-1 RIC Week 28: TOR	1 Last Week: 5	There is hope for the Red Wolves after it held off the Kickers. Now all they need is to beat Toronto FC II at home and hope things go their way elsewhere.
5	North Texas SC (16-6-5) Week 27: -- Week 28: @TUC	1 Last Week: 4	North Texas may approach Friday’s game in Tucson as a tune-up, then they’ll get to sit back and see which side will head to Toyota Stadium on Oct. 12.
6	Toronto FC II (8-10-8) Week 27: W, 1-0 TRM Week 28: @RIC, @CHT	3 Last Week: 9	It’s too late for the Reds to make the playoffs, but two wins in the last three games was a decent return to the good early-season form the side had.
7	Richmond Kickers (8-13-5) Week 27: L, 1-2 @CHT Week 28: TOR, ORL	1 Last Week: 6	The Kickers couldn’t do Madison a favor and heads home with sixth place the best it can do as it hosts Toronto FC II and Orlando to close out the season.
8	FC Tucson (8-10-9) Week 27: L, 2-3 GVL, D, 1-1 MAD Week 28: NTX	Last Week: 8	Tucson had its playoff fate in its hands and took one point from two games. Disappointing end to an up-and-down season.
9	Orlando City B (4-19-4) Week 27: W, 1-0 @GVL Week 28: @RIC	1 Last Week: 10	Orlando not only won but did so on the road to break its goose egg away from the confines of Montverde Academy. Can it put in a repeat performance in Richmond?
10	South Georgia Tormenta FC (8-9-10) Week 27: L, 0-1 @TOR Week 28: GVL	3 Last Week: 7	By virtue of OCB’s victory, Tormenta FC now has the longest winless streak in the league. We’d never have seen this coming in July.
