Power Rankings See Mix Up in Top Four | Power Rankings Week 12

Week 12 of the Gainbridge Super League was loaded of historic moments like the eight-goal thriller between Sporting JAX and Brooklyn FC, Jilly Shimkin’s three assists in a single match and Kayla Brewer becoming the youngest player to record an assist in league history.  

While Carolina remains atop the standings, DC Power and Brooklyn FC both rise in the rankings: 

Rank		Team	Change	Summary
1		Carolina Ascent FC (8-1-2) Week 13: @ BKN	Last Week: 1	Carolina took all three points in Week 12 after Emily Moxley scored the lone goal in a 1-0 victory at home over the reigning champions but with results around the league, Ascent is one point from clinching a playoff spot and closing in on the Players' Shield.
2		Sporting JAX (4-2-4) Week 13: @ DAL	Last Week: 2	Ashlyn Puerta's seven goals in three matches have propelled Sporting JAX into third place in the league standings and on the upswing coming into the final weeks of the regular season. She's now scored 20 career Super League goals in 37 regular season appearances.
3		DC Power FC (5-3-2) Week 13: vs. LEX	1 Last Week: 4	DC Power's Alyssa Walker chipped the keeper in the final moments of the match to take all three points and put the Power firmly into the playoff positions as the league enters its final few weeks of matches.
4		Dallas Trinity FC (4-4-2) Week 13: vs. JAX	3 Last Week: 7	For the second time this season, Dallas recorded a 3-0 shutout at home with Juliet Moore and Kalea Eichenberger scoring their first goal of the season. As Dallas barrels toward the postseason, they'll need to continue getting more players involved in the attack.
5		Brooklyn FC (3-5-2) Week 13: vs. CAR	Last Week: 5	Brooklyn played Sporting JAX to a 4-4 draw, marking only the second time in history and first time since May 3, 2025 that the team has scored four goals. As Brooklyn looks to make their first postseason appearance, it will need to continue its goalscoring but find a way to hold opponents off the scoresheet.
6		Lexington SC (4-4-2) Week 13: @ DC	3 Last Week: 3	Lexington SC has only one win in its last five matches and were unable to find the back of the net against Carolina in Week 12. Lexington currently sits fourth in the League standings, making Friday night's clash with second-placed DC a key showdown.
7		Fort Lauderdale United FC (2-8-1) Week 13: vs. TB	1 Last Week: 6	Fort Lauderdale struggled at the Cotton Bowl after going down a player in the second half and allowing three goals. They're not mathematically eliminated but probably need a win to keep their hopes alive this weekend.
8		Tampa Bay Sun FC (2-5-3) Week 13: @ FTL	Last Week: 8	Tampa Bay Sun looked like they might come away with a point from the weekend's matchup against DC until a late goal gave the visitors all three points. The Sun are winless in their last six and every match is now a must win.
