You just don't say someone may not "ever" lose again.
If you take out the "ever" and simply write:
"South Aiken may not lose again. They are very talented."
Then you have a phrase that is slightly less ridiculous, but still a major bullseye on a team/coach.
Better to just write:
"We showed all we had. SA is very talented."
This abrogated phrasing of your post allows you to heap praise on South Aiken, while also hinting that North Augusta is a strong team. There is nothing tongue in cheek about such wording either.

Perfectly and eloquently stated. How about: "We showed all we had. SA is very talented. Their coach is a good race car driver."

I waited patiently, hoping, praying, sensing you two would eventually come to the perfect statement. Alas, it has arrived. Coming out of turn four, watch for me...and Vickers.

4A versus 2A
2100 vs. 760
The scrimmage was played with 3 30's which allowed Mike and I to make changes after each period. We both were trying to find holes to fill and spots for people we are not sure about yet. All in all, it was a scrimmage and it was treated as one.
Irmo's Speed of Play was much better than our speed of play therefore they were able to take advantage of every opportunity.
However, this scrimmage allowed us to see our weaknesses a little bit more to prepare for the 2A schedule!
There is a reason they divide schools into divisions!
The JV score is pretty impressive. Post it, Mike.

You and Vickers?  Doesn't she play for Irmo, or Dutch Fork or Lexington? I didn't think she was at South Aiken. 
Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.

Didn't intend to offend anyone. Point well taken. South Aiken is very talented and well coached.

Cardinal and Blue? Aren't those USC Aiken's colors? Who do I know that would post about North Augusta and likes USC Aiken. Hmmm....
