Rank Team Division Comments
1 The Others DC Liberty, DC Capital The goal was to win the big one. Mission accomplished. Only time will tell if the super-team stays together, but if they do, they enter the 2010 WAKA campaign as the favorites.
2 Balls Deeper FL Riptide, FL Beach No denying the run at FC and through Riptide. It’s always been the same top four in the FTL, but has the pecking order changed now? Will grumblings about their lack of depth continue?
3 Just Kickin’ It FL Beach Sometimes the folks in maroon don’t get the pub of their much louder SoFla brethren. But quiet is how JKI likes it. And being the current Coconut Keg holders counts for something.
4 Best Coast Ballers CA Gold Rush If last year was the opening act, this year was the coming out party for the West Coast flagship. The peanut gallery may bemoan the hometown & FC SOS … but BCB is headed in the right direction. Up.
5 Riff Raff for Life FL Riptide, FL Beach FC was the breakout performance we knew RR had in them. For some reason, it didn’t quell its critics, who feasted on the semifinal bow out in Riptide and on the so-called roster “rumors.”
6 Meatballs FL Beach JKI took the last hard duel in Beach. Then they dropped a tough decision at FC to a RR team they previously owned. Lots of chirping ensued. Still, don’t count the Meat out … they always reload.
7 Make It Rain VA Shore A consistent run during the early tourney season, along with generally strong league performances in Tidewater. But the tourney steam seemed to run out at the end of ’09.
8 Dumpster Fire NY Star Made a great FC run and have proven to be top dogs so far in the Big Apple over the past few months (NYCGN, Star Spring and Fall). The talent is there, and the mental game is vastly improved.
9 Frosty Balls VA Recess A tough tilt against a rapidly improving Maine squad, a slightly earlier than expected bow at FC to a determined BD team, and a loss in Tidewater has the aging defending champs down, although not out.
10 Ballers and Shot Callers DC Capital Not quite what they wanted out of K365 and FC, but more proof they can compete at the highest level. Look for them to turn a corner, or two, in 2010.”
