I think that SCS will be pretty good. Not sure if they will give CC a run for their money but we shall see.
I don't think that Buford will be that good seeing that they lost 2 of thier best players, goalie, and thier coach.
Blackville-Hilda will give all the lower state teams a good run. They will probably go to Lower State against AM if the brackets work in their favor come playoffs. By the way, how are you guys ranked in the top 5??? You may be returning all of your starters and be a great teams this year but.....you guys shouldn't be ranked in the top 5 for pre-season. That just doesn't make sense since you guys didn't even go to Lower State last year.
Dixie, I haven't heard a lot about. The only thing about this team that I hear is that they are a decent team. The only way this team will be a good team and contender, is if they get over the hurdle of beating SCS. They always play them close but can never finish it.
Gov. School, from what I gather never know what they have since they only have juniors and seniors. They loose probably half their team every year. So...this is probably the sleeper team since no one ever knows (including them) what they have until game time. By the way, much props for being the smallest school with a Soccer team in all divisions and going to Lower State 2 years in a row now.
CC and AM are the two power houses, suprise-suprise. These are probably my two picks for the championship game. THen I hope AM will pull out the win in the Championship game so another team can be on the trophy.
Williston-Elko (sp?)- Haven't heard to much about and don't think they will be a big contender this year.
Indian Land- Um.....no
The others aren't even worth mentioning.
Congrats on the 2 new teams (besides AM) in 1A this season:
~Fox Creek
~East Claredon
Good luck to all team this season and for those of you who have slack Coaches/AD's tell them to send in your schedules..*Cough.. SCS..Cough*
