I also think it is VERY impressive the ENTIRE Farragut team is going to the Prom. Studs on and off the pitch! Lineup for Dancing With The Stars Season 35!

Wouldn't you be jumping to conclusions by making assumptions from overhearing one phone call? (and one-half of the conversation at that)

If all FOUR coaches agree that's great. Seems it would have been easy to state that on the post regarding the champion to dispel rumors and protect the tournament reputation.

Good luck to all the teams today.

To clarify:

If Wando loses to Farragut, but defeats the winner of the second semifinal in tonights closing match, Wando defers the championship to Farragut.

If Wando loses to Farragut, then loses to the winner of the BE/Fort Mill match, the winner and champion of the tournament is either Bishop England or Fort Mill.

All four coaches from the four semifinal participants were a part of the process. The decision to defer the championship to Farragut in the event that they defeated Wando and then won the championship match was between Wallie Culberth, head coach of Farragut, and Shilo Tisdale, head coach of Wando.

Update - Semifinal score: HT Wando 0-4 Farragut

Thank you, for the information. This sounds like a very fair decision and we have to applaud the Wando coach and his team for the good sportsmanship.

Anyone have final thoughts on Farragut? Were the fans(parents) that made the trip good sports? Were the players good sports? Final thoughts on the size, speed, skill, athleticism of the players? Just general overall thoughts of them?

I thought Farragut was the best team in the tournament. The parents that traveled with them rivaled in size to some of the in-state teams and like all us soccer fans celebrated the good and questioned some of the calls of the uniformed men. I also thought #16 did a great job owning the midfield and #6 did an excellent job on defense this weekend. I also thought I heard that they committed to the tournament before their prom was scheduled. In any event, they were a quality team, simple good soccer.
