Region VII AAA Next Year - Socastee, Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Carolina Forest, St. James, Georgetown and Dillon. And only four of these teams will make it to the play-offs next year. Ouch...

Region V AAAA next year will be made up of Irmo, Dutch Fork, Spring Valley, Ridge View, and RNE. Any one seed next year who has to face the number four team out of this region in the first round of the playoffs is going to have its hands full.

well i beleive that the upperstate AAA playoffs will be very exciting but i dont beleive that JL MANN, riverside, daniel, dreher, and MB are as good as yall may think that they are. i am not downing these teams its just that i stats dont show to well when your trying to argue for these teams. i would like to see greenville go all the way, but my opinion i biased to so.here are some stats to go by.

MRYTLE BEACH:
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 153-151-1

RIVERSIDE
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 157-154-8

JL MANN
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 120-108-1

DREHER
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 194-176-16

GREENVILLE
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 233-137-5

BC
Combined W-L-T record of Opponents: 235-178-13


it seem sto me that these almost all teams are geeting more credit than they deserve. now i for sure beleive that upperstate has the cup but i beleive that it may just come down to whoever wants it more. all these teams are good and it should make for an interesting AAA playoff

looks to be an interesting playoffs...

Here is some info on the teams that Rainbow mentioned earlier, I threw in Socastee and Irmo to give a little perspective.

One thing that I think that this may show is that even if you have a hard schedule you have to win some of the hard games.

The stats for Greenville and Irmo say that they beat "good" teams and lost to really "good" teams.

As opposed to BC Where they beat "below average" teams and lost to the good teams.
That is where BC has to improve they have to win the close game against a hard opponent.

But you can always make statistics say anything.

Question FinishNUM1? How is Hartsville playing Wando. I happen to go to Hartsville and wanted to know since... even though we are not that great why it is that we would play a number 1 seed when our region's number 4 seed (Crestwood) is playing the number 2 seed from their region (James Island). Is it not the other way around where Hartsville plays the number 2 seed, or am I mistaken? All the years I have played and watching my brother play a couple years ago, the number 1 played the number 4 and the number 2 played the number 3? Am I right or wrong? Just curious.
