You are dead on with your evaluation of South Carolina high school teams. They are good in their own right, but they do not compare with many team in surrounding states from NC, Georgia, Virginia, etc., not to mention the Texas, Florida, NJ, PA, CA and the list goes on and on. There are also very few states that play in the Spring, so it is very difficut to compare teams to eac other on the national level. If you take a team like Thomas Dale from Virginia, they have 6 players that have signed Div. I scholarships this year. There are years in South Carolina where there are not that many players in the entire state. So SC has some very good teams in their own world, but are not a big factor in the overall picture.
