An eventful week of District 2 soccer with divisional titles decided or closed in on has led to a similarly eventful week in terms of changes in the latest Riverfront United Super Six Soccer Power Rankings of district teams.
Newly crowned Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 champion Holy Redeemer has taken over the No. 1 Small School girls spot while two teams have climbed to No. 2 and two more to No. 3 in the other sets of rankings.
The other rankings were released Thursday, in time for more showdowns between ranked teams with titles on the line.
Crestwood will try to claim the WVC Division 1 girls title Thursday in a game between two of the top four Big Schools.
Holy Cross and Dunmore will decide the Lackawanna League Division 3 boys title – barring another tie between them – when the top two Small Schools meet Monday, in a game that was rescheduled from Friday.
Both Abington Heights teams won Lackawanna Division 1 championships and held on to top rankings in Big Schools. The Holy Cross boys preserved District 2’s only perfect soccer record to remain first among Small School boys.

Abington Heights finished perfect in Lackawanna Division 1 by allowing just one goal in three wins to improve to 16-1 overall and hold No. 1.
