15U Power Rankings: Week 8: June 6, 2012
The City is No. 1 for second straight week
It was a quiet week on the 15U circuit, but The City took advantage of a slow week. They went up to Boston and defended their No. 1 ranking by playing very well at the 16U Boston Shootout, before losing in the title game to BABC — a top 10 16U team.
