I don't know how the selection process works in SCISA, but apparently the team has already been announced. I don't have the list of all-state players, but someone else on the board may.

it is posted on the scisa web site and iam shocked how are these selections made

What is the selection process?

Could somebody just copy and paste the all-state list here for everyone to see easily?

Spartanburg Christian and Trinity Collegiate had as many players as Hilton Head Christian and more players than Hilton Head Prep.

Both of the AAA schools would beat those two AA schools by at least 5 goals.

WOW, scisasportsfan, you seem pretty upset with the all-state team. I'm guessing you havent seen Trinity or SCA play correct? To say they would lose to HHP or HHCA without even seeing them play is big prediction. I dont know how the teams are selected nor I am taking up for anyone, but I am pretty sure EVERY team has a few girls capable of making the all-state team. Just bc a team is better, doesnt mean that team has the BEST player on the field. Does that make sense to you? I can assure you Molly Jones from Trinity can start for ANY 3A team. She scored 3 goals on Heathwood and Trinity played them 11 on 9 without their top midfielder (Rebecca Leviner). Anyway, I agree HHP and HHCA are probably the better team but that doesnt mean they have the best players outside of Blum may be one the top players in all of scisa.

How does SCISA come up with this list? Is there a voting process? What coaches are involved? I would put it out there that this is one reason why SCISA women's soccer has such an uphill battle earning respect in the state- I interpret this list as the SCISA higher ups not giving another women's sport due respect. I don't know if SCISASPORTSFAN has a point or not, as I have not seen trinity or sca play, but his posts have been thorough and regularly verified by others, particularly coaches of teams. It is unfortunate when adults (such as those at scisa hq- i'm making the assumption they sanction and create the list) screw up everything for the players. So how can we go about changing this and helping the players?

I can vouch for Belcher from SCA. My team played SCA and as a team not great but Amanda was a very good player.
