I believe that there is different leadership in MP than when the Battery and the club met. Winds of change...
I agree that on a percentage basis CESA does not have that many players from the Charleston area - but of those numbers, they tend to represent some of the most dominant and substantial players. I think when the fall rosters are announced you will be surprised to find how many more of the local players are jamming I-26.
As to heavy recruiting. I consider that when a CESA coach sends a dozen or more emails, many phone calls, offers to guest play in high profile tournaments to a prospect and then comes to the Charleston area to have a meeting with a U-15 player and parents, I call it heavy recruiting - maybe I am wrong, but it sounds more like college than club.
