SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Boys Varsity Soccer Dutch Fork vs Irmo

Looks like its gonna be an all region 5 lower state championship. Who do you all think will win? I'm pulling for and thinking Dutch Fork is going to pull this one off.

Dutch Fork stole a win tonight, and did not play well at all. Irmo wasn't any more convincing, though they played a much tougher team. When it comes to a rivalry like this, nothing really matters except experience. DF is young is not used to being this far into the post season, where Irmo is there every year.

Lex, your just jealous that such a young team is doing so good. It is going to be a close game on Wednesday night. I'm pulling for Dutch Fork for the simple fact that I want to see some other Columbia area high school in the state final besides Irmo or Chapin.

DF will come out on top...For two simple reasons...This is there Rival who they havent beaten all year, but could have very well have done so...and its to go to the State Finals...Hello you dont need any more reason than that...Everyone come out it should be and intense and exciting match...maybe the best match all year in the State...

This game will be one of the more intense games you see all season. The two teams are huge rivals and with so much to play for, the game will be that much more intense. No matter the outcome, this should be a very fun game to watch.

Does anyone know what time it starts on Wednesday at Irmo?

Thanks.

Lex -

DF did not steal a win at HH. They played with heart and intensity and Irmo will need to be able to finish to get by them.

Ifc-
I did not say Dutch Fork didn't play with intensity and heart, because they did. What I am saying is they got worked up and down the field for a good 90 minutes. They were outshot and outworked in almost every position. Were they the better team? No. Did they win? Yes. That's the end of it. Hilton Head could not get a ball in the net because of phenomenal goal keeping, but as for Dutch Fork beating Irmo, its going to take alot more than decent goal keeping. Third times a charm though, records are out the door in a match like this. My money's on Irmo.

The Lower State title game is set for Irmo's W.C. Hawkins stadium on Wednesday, May 11 at 7:00. GO JACKETS!!

i was at the game, and saying that dutch fork got worked for 90 minutes isnt true...they got worked for a short period in over time. but during regulation, play was fairly even, and at times dominated by df and at other times dominated by hilton head.
