Preseason rankings are due soon and I've taken a look back at the top performing programs over the last three years. Top spots are held by those ranked in all three, then two of three, then only one. Tie breakers go - state championships, state championship appearances, lowest ranking, and most recent ranking.

Final Ranking in 3 of 3 years

1. Wando 3.3 average finishing place, 1 SC
2. Irmo 4.0 1 SCA
3. Fort Mill 4.7 1 SCA
4. Lexington 4.7 1 SCA (lowest ranking 9th vs FM's 7th)
5. Dorman 5.0 1 SC
6. Mauldin 6.0
7. West Ashley 7.7 1 SC
8. Summerville 7.7 (highest low ranking, but WA has SC)
9. James Island 10.0
10. Spring Valley 10.7

Final Ranking 2 of 3 years

11. Dutch Fork 7.0
12. Byrnes 11.0
13. T.L. Hanna 11.0 (most recent 13 vs Byrnes 9)
14. Spartanburg 12.5

Rankings 1 out of 3 years

15. South Aiken 7.0
16. Richland Northeast 10
17. Wren 14.0
18. Aiken 14.0 (Wren most recent ranking)
19. Northwestern 15.0

To think that Wando, West Ashley, Summerville and James Island were once in the same region is scary.

It would be nice to line them up in an eight-team tournament with Dorman, Mauldin, Spartanburg and Byrnes.

I don't remember S-ville being in the same region. How long ago was that? If you're right...geez, that would be a bad day for some region.

p.s. I check "Who is online" a good bit and see people reading these threads. I hope more will register and chat so you and I don't have to go back and forth so often...not that you're not great company and all

Heh...believe me, having Wando, West Ashley and James Island all in one region was plenty for the rest of us!

I'm probably wrong about Summerville........but Coach Chass is right.

Come on, Hurst. Fort Mill in the top 3? No thoughts or comments? You sound like some other Lou Holtz guy I know who always underplays his team!

There's probably about eight teams in 4A that can win the girl's state championship this year.

This is much more competitive than the the boy's 4A, where the consensus seems to be that no more than two or three teams are in the running for the state title.

I agree. Wando is carrying a lot of momentum, but other than that it seems to be anyone's game. I wonder who will be the media darling this year and break through into the top 15. Clover was the talk in '07 and it was good to see a fresh face.
