Individual teams in each region obviously have goals that the coach and/or players set at the onset of the season, but it would be interesting to look at the actual goals of the region as a whole. For instance, REGION I-AAAA's goals may look like this:

REGION I-AAAA
1.) Have 2 or 3 teams win their first round playoff matches
2.) Have 3 teams ranked in the top 15 at some point
3.) Have 1 team make it to the Upper State Championship
4.) Post an overall winning record against non-region 4A schools
5.) Post an overall winning record against all non-region opponents

This is entirely hypothetical, and no other REGION I-AAAA coaches were consulted when posting this.

I'm sure the level of ambition for each region is either tempered or fueled by the collective coaches' evaluation of how competitive their squads are in respect to other teams in the state.

For example, the REGION II-AAAA goals would be more ambitious of those of REGION I-AAAA based on the quality of teams in that region.

Region V-AAA

1. Have at least one club player on each team
2. Avoid getting banned from the Viking Cup for lack of talent
3. For coaches not to be laughed at while entering the winter clinic.
4. Have every player make at least one warm up lap without cramping up...at least once during the year.
5. Have the AD use 5 or less profane words when describing our impact on the budget.

It is easier to establish team goals rather than region goals. But for fun....
Region V-AAA (Swansea, South Aiken, Dreher, BC, Airport)

1.) Have all 5 teams ranked in the top 15 in the 3A polls.
2.) Have 3 out of 4 teams make it to lower state semifinals. (This has been done 3 out of last 4 years)
3.) Kick South Aiken back to 4A.

_______________________________________________________

you do know that we are paired with region 2 in the first round, don't you?

On behalf of the rest of the coaches in R1, you are fired as spokesperson.

Oh, and "Have one team make upperstate game"...You really hate me don't you?
