Riverside vs. South Aiken. Stone cold lock.




Despite my prediction, I certainly agree that you have to play the games out. What makes soccer so special is that if you can defend, you can stay in a match. Goals are at a premium when you get down to the Final 8 in the state.

However, I would not agree with the "on any given day" statement. I think Riverside is a notch ahead of the others in the upperstate. The teams you mention are not going to beat them on "any given day", they are going to beat them on "their day".

Riverside is not unbeatable, I don't think any team in South Carolina is. Wando girls and Northwestern boys are probably real good bets to reach the state final, but neither is a guarantee to close the deal.

If you HAD to bet the farm on 3A, you would probably put your money on a Riverside - South Aiken final.




Hurst, I agree
If Riverside loses on there way to back to back state championships it will be considered an upset. Riverside is just hitting there stride and will be a very tough out.
