Following the release of the IMG Academy Top 150 Boys Soccer Players for the class of 2018 on Monday, TopDrawerSoccer unveiled the regional rankings on Thursday. The regional rankings are a collection of the best players from every corner of the United States. Each region’s list is assembled with the help of coaches and scouts from across the country. The TopDrawerSoccer staff has the final say in the placement and rating of each player. Learn more about the rankings criteria. 

Boys 2018 Regional Rankings: New York | Southern California | Texas 

Duke commit Alejandro Pereira, a top 50 player, moves into the No. 1 spot in the Florida region. The forward has been in the mix with the U.S. Youth National Teams and looks to be one to watch from this class. He is one of over 30 players from the region ranked in the new update to the boys class of 2018. 

Georgetown commit Luke Kiley jumps up to No. 2 in the Great Lakes region. The forward is one of three four-star players from the region. 

Jake Ronneberg, Chicago Fire Academy, is one of the new players to the Midwest Region rankings for the fall update. The defender has been terrific at the start of the Development Academy season and earned plenty of attention from that region. 

The next update for the player rankings will be on Monday with TopDrawerSoccer Top 150 Players, presented by IMG, for the girls class of 2018. For any questions or comments about the rankings, please email rankings@topdrawersoccer.com.
