SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Girls Varsity Soccer Shutout records

Riverside had 20 shutouts in 2004, their last state champs year, and they played 24 games only losing one. They set the record for least goals against (10), most goals for, and most shut-outs. I believe to set a record you have to win the state, or that is what i have heard. Also i believe that is the best way to do it also because if you really are better then others then you shoud be able to go all the way, and WIN. As of right now Riverside is tied with their old record of 10 goals against and they have 17 shutouts with 5 games to go, that is if they go all the way.

Winning state has nothing to do with earning the rights to records.

First i would like to correct myself, Riverside played 28 games and won 27 and the record they set for most goals for was 184.

Second...if the statement about having to win state to set a record then why are all these "records" not recorded?

I'm just wondering.

pks,

Good point on why none of the records have been recorded. It's a shame that over all these years there has not been a "caretaker" to compile all of this.

Fort Mill has allowed only 4 goals this year through 21 games. That record of 10 is in jeopardy.

Just a note. The boys records are pretty accurate and can be found at Boys Individual & Team Records. However, for whatever reason, the girls side of things has always had a void since its inception in the early 1990s.

Girls Team Goals Allowed record listed on www.schsl.org actually has Riverside yielding only 4 goals in 1992.

Kyle, can you make a concerted effort to establish the benchmarks for the girls? What kind of help would you need?

Sure. However, it's going to have to wait until June after the 2006 season is wrapped up.

What we really need is someone passionate about girls soccer records to comb through some of the better programs' historical records (i.e., Riverside, Eastside, Wando, West Ashley, Bishop England, Mauldin, etc.). Those programs over the past 15 years have basically been the benchmark programs and would probably hold most of the records.

If anyone is interested, I'm listening!

The Charlotte Observer gives a little love to the Lady Jackets defense. Also noted is that Mauldin has the record for most shutouts in a season (20).

Hey, Kyle! Man, you forgot T.L. Hanna! Must've been a typo there, heh, heh. Slip of the finger? Preoccupied? Mind on other things? Don't worry about, buddy. Happens to the best of us. Yup, T.L. Hanna, one of the top programs. Yes sireeeee...
