The boys soccer season is already underway and this week marks the beginning of divisional play for the Shore Conference's six divisions. Below are links to previews of all six divisions, featuring write-ups on every team as well as players to watch during the next two-and-a-half months. Mix it all together, and you have the preseason Top 10 in the Shore, which is also linked below. Last year the preseason No. 10 team and the one picked third in Class A North won the Shore Conference Tournament, and there could be a similar level of unpredictability this year. Despite that, we invite you to continue reading anyway.

Class A North - Manalapan set to defend A North and SCT titles against some stiff competition.

Class A Central - Holmdel attempts to once again implement the status quo.

Class A South - It's anybody's ballgame, opening the door for a couple of middle-of-the-pack teams from a year ago to ascend to the top.

Class B North - Wall is geared up for a banner year, but the Shore's deepest division is a rough first obstacle.

Class B Central - After a disappointing season, Shore is healthy and focused on getting back to the top of the division and winning an elusive sectional title.

Class B South - Can any team in B South - including mainstays Point Boro and Donovan Catholic - overcome Central's dynamic duo?

The Top 10 - The usual suspects make up the top five, but a number of upstart programs round out the bottom five.
