Junior & CJ,

Use your "wee gee board", rednecks....and leave the statistical analysis to the Japanese guy.

Oink! Oink! Oink!

(How's that?)

I'm not asking you to research every school in NC and GA, I'm just tired of seeing this same old flawed analysis every year.

Believe me, the folks up here in York County are playoff-ready. Am I guaranteeing a couple of victories? Heck no.

But you can't spin it both ways if they lose. You can't say FM wasn't playoff ready because they didn't play anybody, and also say Fort Mill "choked" because they were favored.

Make up your mind. Go on record. Is Fort Mill over-rated or under-rated?

If the system is flawed, fix it. Find the AAAA ranked teams in NC. Do some research. Work the internet. Be the Pan. I don't care what you do so long as we don't have to hear the incessant whining and moaning and crying and boo hooing. Never has one man blubbered so much yet done so little. I believe in you, friend. You can do it!

Oh, and I'd take Mauldin, Byrnes, Hanna, and Dutch Fork before I'd take Ft Mill. Of course, that's the thing about the Lady Jackets - just when you count them out...

unfortunately, I can't go on record because there isn't much data to go on for York County teams. I played Northwestern in a scrimmage and that is all I know about region 3. And really that was just a scrimmage a long time ago, I am sure Cantona's team is WAY different now. I suspect that Fort Mill is good because of great coaching and history. I think Clover might be alright because they play Fort Mill close. Nation Ford is a brand new school and I have no clue about them. All of my posts about R2 sweeping R3 have a lot more to do with the strength of R2, not a weakness in R3.

All that being said, relax and don't let the fact that the last two teams that were ranked 4th in 4A went down in flames bother you.

Or worry about the coach of a team hanging by the skin of their teeth to a mere #15 spot.

p.s. Get the stats

Dale, "Be the pan" was classic!

Obviously, only Matt Bernoski himself could rise to such glory, but here are some stats on Ft. Mill, why I did this, no idea, but here goes...

2008 - Fort Mill - Current Rank - #4

1.) Ft. Mill has lost 2 matches. Only 3 AAAA teams have lost fewer or the same amount: Lexington, Dorman, and Wando - all three of which are ranked above Ft. Mill.

2.) Ft. Mill has not lost a match that counts on their record since February 23rd. They have not LOST any match since a February 27th scrimmage against NC Private School, #2 Charlotte Latin (10-3-1). Based on the actual time that their 2/23 match was played, Ft. Mill currently holds the longest chronological official unbeaten streak in AAAA girls soccer in SC, or is at least tied with that of Dorman, who last lost on 2/23 in the Viking Cup.

3.) Below are the Rankings, Records, and Results for Ft. Mills NC opponents:

3A #4 Charlotte Catholic - Tied - 1-1 - (11-2-3)
4A #12 DW Butler - Won - 2-1 - (12-3-1)
PS #11 Charlotte Country Day - Tied - 1-1 (6-2-4)

4.) Fort Mill is the ONLY AAAA Upperstate team in SC over the last 3 years that has advanced to at least the 3rd round of the playoffs EVERY YEAR!(3 years is KEY because this includes players that could possibly still be on the current team - going back 4 or more years would not.) Dorman and Lexington have each advanced to or beyond the 3rd round twice.

5.) Over the last 3 years, Ft. Mill has defeated the following teams in the Upperstate Playoffs:
Easley, Aiken, Spartanburg, Wren, Mauldin, Byrnes, and South Aiken (x2). The two years they lost in the 3rd Round, they were defeated by Lexington, each time by 1 goal.

Regardless of rank, opponents, strength of schedule, etc., researching all of this gave me a new respect for the consistency Ft. Mill has displayed over a three year stretch in an increasingly competitive AAAA Upperstate playoff system!
