Kennedy climbs to 3rd in boys soccer

The Kennedy Cougars climbed two spots to No. 3 in the Class 3A boys soccer rankings Tuesday without playing a game.

Iowa City West and Linn-Mar, two of Kennedy's chief rivals in the Mississippi Valley Conference, got their seasons started last week against tough competition and lost a match. Iowa City West (2-1) fell from No. 1 to No. 8. Linn-Mar (1-1) dropped one notch from No. 3 to No. 4.
