SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Boys Varsity Soccer New State Rankings

New rankings are out. All I can say is that I'm glad I didn't have to do them. I figured the tourney this week would be a rankings scrambler, but who could have guessed?

i dont think that hilton head and south aiken should be ranked as high as they are

That is because you don't know anything about those teams.....

HH beat fort mill.. Spring Valley,Wando, South Aiken,and Dutch Fork lost.. HH could of be back to #2 but Irmo didnt play at all this week so it was good for them to not play at all.

How does Irmo got from 6 to 2 with only a win against chapin and 5 losses?

Thank goodness the playoffs are coming soon. The rankings will really start to mean something.

It's hard to get a read on just how good South Aiken is, having not seen them play. If they are ranked too high, this week will tell, as they have to play Lexington and Spring Valley on the road. They win those two, they deserve the ranking. Hilton Head has Fort D and Beaufort at home. If they win, they can wrap up their region with a win at Colleton Co. If they get those wins, coupled with their play in Columbia, they deserve the ranking. Right now you have NW a clear #1, with the next seven or eight teams pretty much interchangable. Irmo, SV, DF, Lex, SA, HH, Wando, West Ashley, FM. Fort D is unranked but very dangerous. There may be a few dark horses lurking out there ready to make a run. Stratford is getting back to form. James Island is very good, but hit a few bumps this week. Dorman, Mauldin & Wren are new in the rankings this week. You just have to love this mess if you love soccer. The playoffs are going to be great!

In my perfect world:

1. Northwestern
2. Spring Valley
3. Wando
4. South Aiken
5. Irmo
6. Lexington
7. Dutch Fork
8. Fort Mill
9. Hilton Head
10.James Island

..but really..after 1,2,3..who cares? The disparity between 1..and everyone else though..should be reason enough for this not to matter.

i agree with L-E Dudes rankings. the new rankings are absolutely terrible! first of all, how can irmo be # 2 AHEAD OF SV? SV already clinched the hardest region in the state. it makes no sense. Second, i kno HH had a good tournament but they just lost to Summerville and i dont care how close it was. S'ville placed 2nd to last in the tournament and lost to S. Anchorage. And lastly, how does Wando drop 6 places??? yea they tied Farragut (who were finalists in the palmetto cup) and lost by one to SV who, from what i saw, is one of the best teams in the state. i dont understand, but i just can't wait for playoffs.

atually allball i do know something about those teams. I have seen both of them play and neither of them impressed at all, especially hilton head.
