Clover is undervalued at #8.

Lady Blue Eagles have impressive victories over #9 Lexington, #11 Dutch Fork and Kings Mountain (NC-3A).

A draw with #4 TL Hanna (while missing their starting center midfielder).

Three losses against Waccamaw (SC-2A #1), Marvin Ridge (NC-3A #1) and Weddington (NC-3A #6).

How about B'wood being overvalued at #6. 2 of 3 losses to 3A schools and 1 quality win over SV. I think they jumped 6 or 7 spots the previous week???

If you were to rank the Cola schools this spring, all classifications considered, would B-C be #1?

I would say you are spot on, in fact if they were stock picks I would say the money would be on Clover to rise.

Looking at the two ahead of them and the like teams all three have played I would say a very good case could be made for them to be right with/behind FM. Of course they will get their chance this week to clear that up when they go to the Jackets nest should be a great game when two teams very familiar with each other will lace'em up again.
Clover has been close last couple of games and it will likely be no differnt this time!

Gotta give them scheduling credit. Their schedule is a who's who of the ranked teams with only 5 of 22 unranked! Every loss they have is to a quality team and even those are close.

2 of the 3A team's being in the top 6 in their class and both are on fire! (Dreher and B-C) I wouldnt consider those 2 losses bad seeing as the one against Dreher was in Pk's its anyones game at that point.

Spring Valley was holding the #8 spot when Blythewood beat them does it not seem right to move them up a bit?

If they continue to win i think it's the right choice to keep moving them up accordingly!

I agree that if a team wins they should move up, but should Blythewood move up over a team like Lexington that they lost to? Lexington won this week as well so I don't see how you could rank them ahead of them.

Clover is very good and deserves more respect than they get. They should be ranked higher.

You have a good point, there's always some kind of flaws in a ranking system. The good thing is rankings don't really matter and in the end the best teams will end up on top like always!

If I am not mistaken, I do believe that Lexington and Blythewood have not played this year. I don't understand how they could have "lost" to them.

I stand corrected. All in all, I still believe that Blythewood deserves the ranking that they have worked for.

Seems like they are off to a very good start this year with wins over both cross town rivals too!
Wondering about the region scoreboard though, they are listed as having 2 losses in Conf but they have only played York (they won) and FM (they lost).
Does the NAFO game during the FM BB&T count against them in conf record? If it does it could be the difference in region seeding does not seem fair that it should count against them.

Chief,

The FMI match between NF-NW was not a region game. The scoreboard needs to be changed (Kyle?).

Northwestern will be 3-1 in the region after they update their unreported scores.

Good to hear, did not think it would but can never be sure. Still their season is already a success, over last year's, and I am sure they likely have some more wins in there.
