Five years without a minority player is not in bad taste, just an observation. Seriously, though. Five years?

I did like the point you brought up backrow. Nice point of view.

backrow --

I am not being critical of Wando in any way, just saying what I see. And over the last 5 years I've not seen a minority player on the Wando Varsity Girls team. If I'm wrong then somebody please correct me. As to previous upper level club exposure, there seem to be plenty of minority players coming out of the classic programs and feeding into both James Island and West Ashley, just not in Mount Pleasant, or at least not Wando.

WA You might be right there might be other teams that u feel should ranked and that is ok because our focus right now is to complete our schedule with good results not who should be ranked where. So best of luck to u with next week rankings.

I saw it as an observation as well. It's hard to be critical of a competitive high school program -- as has been said, by the time many players are in ninth grade they've been playing for years. The real issue is what clubs and the SCYSA, which can reach kids when they're as young as 6, are doing to attract all of our kids in South Carolina to play soccer.

lapf I totally agree as per my post above.

If the Hoggard, NC - James Island score is posted, would rankings be affected? JI beat Hoggard 2 - 1 while Wando lost 1 - 0?

Since it is April 5, I wish that James Island would send in their full schedule for this spring. Absolutely ridiculous for a program of that stature not to have their "ducks in a row". Inexcusable!

Actually, the JI - WA games aren't listed on either schedule. I could probably find others. Inexcusable? Do the players know where to be and when? Does the league have a master to post? Who posts the scores on the master? Since the JI - WA game was no secret, why hasn't the master updater updated the scores? I think JI has a new coach but WA? Inexcusable? I guess I don't know why that is.

Actually, the JI - WA games aren't listed on either schedule. Schedules need to be sent to www.scsoccer.com no later than 1/31 of each year.

I could probably find others. I'm sure you can, but as of tonight 7,445 games have been accounted for on the SC HS Scoreboard and two of the most important in girls 4A are not!

Inexcusable? Absolutely! There's not another prep sport in this state that promotes itself more than high school soccer. A little help from some established and respected programs is not much to ask.

Do the players know where to be and when? Have no idea what this is referring to.

Does the league have a master to post? Who posts the scores on the master? Since the JI - WA game was no secret, why hasn't the master updater updated the scores? I think JI has a new coach but WA? Inexcusable? I guess I don't know why that is. Now you know!

Still, you do kind of wonder why Wando hasn't had any minority players in five years, don't you?
