Taking stock of New England’s Div. 2 men’s soccer landscape

As October roars along, there's a fair amount to take stock of in the college soccer world.

Focusing on the Division 2 scene, we've ranked all 12 programs throughout New England, encompassing the Northeast-10, CACC and ECC.

Before getting into which teams appear No. 1 through No. 12, it's important to note that no team from the region is currently nationally ranked. That's partially because Merrimack, a continuously solid program, has moved up to Division 1. But it's also due to mixed results and some self-inflicted wounds.

As postseason races heat up, maybe the likes of Franklin Pierce, Post or Bentley can make some headway on that front.
