Which teams have played the best schedules so far this year and why? (I'll vote later).

Define "best".

If best means hard, I think Chapin should be up there.

yea..chapins is really tough.

flora scheduled themselves a really tough non-conference season with games against 4a spring valley, northwestern, and sumter, 3a BC, chapin, and dreher, scisa foe cardinal newman, as well as the huge lineup in the palmetto cup.

chapin's schudule:...irmo 3 times...DF twice...SV, Ridge View, BC twice, Dreher twice, Airport twice, Dorman, Flora, Emerald, Ben Lippen

Chapin has one heck of a schedule this year! They are going to be well prepared for the playoffs!

I believe this chart that I keep concerning Midlands high school boys soccer teams applies to this category. Any team from Lexington County or Richland County is listed.
