eastside plays at riverside monday night what are some thoughts

eastside will rape

As a Riverside alumnus, I am disappointed at the state of the boys soccer program. According to the scoreboard, they are 0-3 and ranked #15 in 3A. They are also playing a limited schedule compared to RHS teams of the past.

Also, where did Dave Thurson go? He had the program headed back in the right direction after Riverside's mistake of not bringing back Coach Hosea.

Eastide should win easily. I've played both teams, and Eastside is better by far!

Voice,

I believe that your dissappointment is misplaced. There is really nothing wrong with the program, it's just more of a down year than anything else. Riverside lost an enormous amount of senior talent last year and is rebuilding with one of the strongest class of underclassmen in the state. And no, that's not an exagerration. With regards to the schedule, all the games you see on SCSoccer are not all the games that are played. Some games are missing. As far as the coach goes, Thureson suddenly left town for reasons that don't need to be detailed on this thread. They are in excellent hands with Brian Dender. In one or two years you will see and hear more about Riverside than you do about Eastside.

CornerFlag, are you a member of the Riverside HS team, coaching staff, or a fan? If so, could you have Coach Brian Dender or someone from your program send me a complete schedule with scores/results and future dates/times? It's hard to give credit where it's due if others aren't participating!

Also, why have there been so many postponements for Riverside and J.L. Mann this spring?

Kyle:
I know they have had some field and weather problems this spring.

I do wish more coches would keep up with schedules and results. Being a Riverside alumnus who lives in Charleston, SCSOCCER.com is the only way I can keep up with Riverside happenings.

Believe me, if me soccer career here in Charleston was not as good as it is (Magnet and College of Chalreston), I would be back at Riverside coaching the boys team.

If Coach Dender has won some games (they are currently listed at 0-3) and trying to rebuild the program, please post!! I am a proud alumnus and will be a Riverside Warrior forever, but the current Warriors have to help former Warriors stay up to date.

If you are a current Warrior, realize that you are part of one of the greatest dynasties and one of the top 3 programs ever in South Carolina history. Understand that, play like that, represent the program like that.

location: Senegal, you crack me up.

by the way- riverside is gonna pull off the upset.

i think eastside can beat anyone in 3A if they play hard for 80 minutes. they have a ton of talent and experience. i don't think riverside can beat them.

Da Flag:
Please remember that I am from the Riverside years when state championships were expected. Since I live in Charleston now, this site is the only way I can keep up with my beloveded alma mater. I'll never forget the day after we won the 1993 state title that Sean Swiler came into Economics class with his 5 state championship medals on. That is Riverside soccer-- not 0-3, not 2-3, not 4-3.

Based on what I read and see on here, I am disappointed. 0-3 and a #15 ranking is not acceptable for someone who won two state championships and played with some of the greatest high school players ever. I'm sorry but that is how it is. In fact, I do not know any player from the 1985-2000 era who would accept that. I can be this harsh because I know what Coach Hosea was able to get less talented teams to do-- win state championships.

At this point in the season, I would expect Riverside to be 9-3. I do not care about losing senior talent. We used to lose 8 of the starting 11. At Riverside, we do not rebuild, we reload!

The problem is that the currenrt administration, current AD, current soccer coach and current players have no respect and no knowldge for the history of Riverside soccer. A coach's resume is not impressive if he does not have a healthy knowledge of Riverside soccer history.

Terry Archenhold has had tremendous success as the girls coach at RHS. One reason is that he understood and respected what Robin English had done with the girls team. If Coach Dender is only in it for the very small stipend, then it is up to the players to educate him on the history of Riverside soccer. We are a very pround alumni group and do not appreciate a coach who is in it solely for the money. Riverside has a tremendous historic tradition established by Coach Hosea, and we expect that tradition to be continued.

I expect Riverside soccer to be returned to the success we had from the mid 80s to the mid 90s.
