Mauldin has no more excuses; with the local club environment that they have and the success they had this year it would be disappointing if they didn't win several state championships in the next few years. Mauldin went through much of this season underachieving from the Viking Cup to the playoffs; previously Lexington beat Mauldin three years in a row before this year; now that Lexington is rebuilding it will be interesting to see in the next few years how Mauldin responds to being the team that everyone is focused on beating.
