St. Benedict's Prep (Newark, N.J.), Dublin Coffman (Dublin, Ohio) and Dodge City (Kan.) take over TopDrawerSoccer boys soccer regional No. 1 rankings this week after spending previous week's in the No. 2 spot.

St. Benedict's rises to the top of the New Jersey/New York region after a reshuffling of the top three and strong showings by the Gray Bees, which includes wins over four teams from four states -- of them against recent/defending state champions. 

Dublin Coffman moves to the front in the Great Lakes region after the former No. 1 Milwaukee Marquette (Milwaukee, Wis.) played to a draw with another regionally ranked team, Stillwater (Minn.). 

Dodge City, a defending state champion, inherits No. 1 following a three-loss week by former No. 1 Christian Brothers College (St. Louis, Mo.). 

On the girls side, there was no change in regional No. 1s as the seven top teams combined for a 11-0 week.
