Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 9 5-4 3

Not a pretty game as many struggled to find the bottom of the net.  However, their defense remained in tact as they end the regular season ranked first in that department.
Week 8 4-4 4

This team is officially a contender after upsetting Mecca on Saturday.  Despite playing mediocre on offense, their defense was locked in and stifled the division's leading scorer.  They have come a long way from their slow start to the season.
Week 7 3-4 5

Easily their best game of the season propelled by Ammar Saymeh's best game of his MB career. His 8 three's are a season-high across both divisions.
Week 6 2-4 8

Like Delhi, this team's only wins have come against the winless teams.  
Week 5 1-4 8

Lowest point output of the season for this team.  Adam Kwoka and Mahmoud Hamdan are the offensive cogs for this team, and if one of them is shut down, it's a bad omen.
Week 4 1-3 7

Another valiant comeback falls short at the buzzer.
Week 3 1-2 8

Got their first win
Week 2 0-2 8

Safe to assume that this is not the start they were expecting this season.
Week 1 0-1 6

Started off poorly but stormed back and even took the lead in overtime versus Granada.  They will need to improve their decision making - and they have the high IQ players to do that.
Preseason 0-0 3

The Turan legends make their long-awaited return to MB along with Ammar Saymeh.  This team will certainly be a force this season.
