Opening week for most teams is in the books.
While the season is just beginning, here are the first regular-season Mean 15 rankings:
Boys' soccer
Mean 15 rankings - Sept. 10
1. St. Augustine (1-0). The Hermits rolled to an easy 8-2 win over Malvern Prep (Pa.) to kick off what could be a promising campaign.
2. Washington Township (1-1). A 2-0 loss to a good Christian Brothers Academy program, the first regular-season loss for the program in almost two years, shouldn't dampen high expectations for the Minutemen.
3. Delran (1-0). Four different goal scorers tallied for the Bears in their season-opening victory over Northern Burlington.

4. Shawnee (2-1). A big win over Seneca and a close defeat to Washington Township highlighted a strong opening week for the Renegades.
5. Rancocas Valley (2-0-1). The Red Devils have shown some offensive firepower to start the 2019 campaign with 11 goals in three games.
6. Glassboro (2-0-1). The Bulldogs have outscored opponents 8-0 so far this season and have a big matchup coming with Schalick on Wednesday.
7. Triton (2-1). Aiden Sommers tallied four times in two victories to start 2019 for the Mustangs.
8. Haddonfield (2-1). A loss to Triton was a tough pill to swallow but a bounce-back 3-1 win over Hun got the Haddons rolling in the right direction.
9. Seneca (0-2). Though competitive in both games so far, the Golden Eagles dropped contests to Shawnee, 2-1, and Bishop Eustace, 3-2. A tough contest Tuesday against Cherokee is next.

11. Williamstown (1-0-1). Goalkeeper Gunner Hoffman made 10 saves in a season-opening tie against Haddon Township.
12. Moorestown (3-0). The Quakers scored two impressive victories in the opening week: 4-1 over Bordentown and 1-0 over Northern Burlington.

14. Clearview (3-0). The Pioneers outscored opponents 13-1 and beat a strong Kingsway program for a good first week.
15. Eastern (1-0-1). What will prove to be a tough campaign for a mostly rebuilt Vikings program began with a 4-0 shutout over Paul VI and a 1-1 tie with Lenape.
Under consideration: Bishop Eustace (2-1), Kingsway (2-1).
