Regarding Palmetto vs. Broome;

I was at the playoff game last year between these two. The incident as described above is partly fiction. Broome's GK was red carded. I spoke with him after the game and he told me what happened. It was not for anything that was mentioned above and I didn't see him make that type of gesture.

If we are going to call out each other's programs, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the fact that several of the fans from Palmetto were not only obnoxious to both Broome's players and fans but also lacked basic self control (and I'm not talking about regular fan heckling). This was made worse by the fact that Palmetto did not have any law enforcement personnel present to keep control of the situation. Without this presence a situation after the game was allowed to build until the Broome team and fans feared for their safety. I witnessed a large group of fans (and some members of the team) from Palmetto surround the Broome team as they attempted to board the bus and continue to jeer and heckle in an attempt to gain a response. The Broome players and some of the fans (including older family members who only came by to speak to their sons/grandsons) were threatened and asked by several of the "best" Palmetto High School's student body had to offer to stop by the local McDonald's to settle things in a physical manner. I understand how these young "men" might have thought that was the only resolution open to them. I was young once too and have been involved in similar situations. But what I didn’t agree with was the adults (both male and female) from Palmetto goading them on and offering to back them up if needed. Overall I was disappointed in the lack of control shown by some of the Palmetto team, some of its fans and most of its athletic department (none of the coaches would even admit that anything had happened or do anything to stop it). The only voice of reason from Palmetto was one of the members of the team who wrote on this board after the game how he understood it was what it was...a hard fought playoff game that the refs allowed to get too physical (on both sides). If Broome's #12 did what you said he did last night (I wasn't there this time because I actually feared for my family's safety), he was punished correctly by receiving yellow then red cards. That is what they are for. If you want to chastise a kid for making a dumb mistake (in his last soccer game, since he is a senior) then you need to chastise all of them (including members of your own team such as your GK from last year that was red carded for punching another player). Soccer is an emotional game. The players and fans both can allow that emotion to consume them and cause them to do things they will regret later. But, we as adults need to try everything to prevent that from happening.

Lastly, I don't agree with questioning the class of any school's program. You don't know the kids or the coaches from Broome just like I don't know the ones from Palmetto. A lot of these kids are good atheletes, students and role models that happen to be young, male and human. If we can't accept the fact that our own team's members are capable of making the same mistakes and lapses in judgment, then we are living in a fantasy world. It's how we as adults handle ourselves after the fact (and show these young men how to handle themselves) that is truly important. And questioning the class of another program on a message board while hiding behind an alias (whether intentional or not) is not the way to do it.

Congrats to B-L, solid coach, players, and program. Score was 2-0 at the half off of two goals the result of crashing the net hard. Third goal scored with just over 10 minutes remaining in the gamee and was one of the prettiest goals I've seen all season, my hats off to #5 on that one. Fourth goal in stoppage time. I'd say we (Pendleton) showed well for a #14 seed. My only regret is that we let games slip away during the season that resulted in such a tough 1st round opponent. Not sure what ??? would classify as doing work but I think we handled ourselves quite well.

Does anyone know if that is the first playoff win in the history of Goose Creek?
Congratulations from a former Gator, class of '96.

Going out on a limb here and predict that Lexington beats Northwestern 2-1.

soccer2103...maybe is in the water, check this article right below the soccer one

Don't know if it was already posted but hanahan beat burke 5-3 according to charleston.net.

hey 2103 is airport ranked? seems like everytime airport comes down there they get into fights.

You can use your resources on this WEBSITE if you want to know if they are ranked. Is this your first computer????

haha who knows what's going on. Even with the drama, the parents and fans down there were very polite. Don't know if I would want to run into that guy though.

what did justin do?

Joe and Justen got a red card?

Celtic.... I thought you were in England???

I don't know what has happened in the past with Airport and Blufton but I can tell you that our team does not look for fights or even hope for them. They are not coached that way nor do they train that way.

looks like spring valley isnt all that good after all...

I think the playoff brackets need to be revamped. It's ridiculous that Eastside is having to play another region opponent, JL Mann, in the 2nd Round. That means two of the better AAA teams will be home watching the rest of the tourney. Ridiculous!

justen is it? you sir are an idot sir.

This is Justen this time. I didn't post earlier. A friend in my computer class did and I wasn't thinking clearly and let him go ahead. I got to school late today and everyone knew already. I want to tell the story straight. I was pushed into the goal and kick, so i wrapped the guys legs up. The player was taken to the ground and i did get him then. The red was not worth it. I let down all of my players and especially the seniors. I also blew the chance of winning the game. People have been bragging about the fight and I think that is something to be shameful off. It was not professional whatsoever. So again I apologize and want to say great season BLAZERS! We can get them next year.

Palmetto 4 - Gilbert 0
Thursday, May 8, 6:00 PM at Palmetto

Goals: Palmetto - #8 D. Mahaffey (2), #4 J. Davenport, #14 M. Roberts
Assists: #9 T. Bowman (3)

That's Using Your Heads:
Palmetto came out playing much more aggressively for this second round match-up. They controlled the ball and the temperament of the match. With beautiful corners and crosses by Wing Trey Bowman, three different Mustangs headed in goals. With the one additional goal off the foot, Palmetto took a decisive 4-0 lead at half.
The second half saw the Mustangs play ball possession and control. This allowed them also to sub frequently and rest many players. On a hot and muggy night, this was needed.
Gilbert played very good ball - but were just overmatched. #9 and #12 showed some really good soccer skills, and #4 was very good defensively as he marked our leading playmaker the second half and held him in check.
It was nice to see Palmetto play with their heads - both literally and figuratively, as they played really smart soccer tonight. With our leading scorer out, it was nice to see great passing and many others step up their game.
