any one has perdictions for 4a rankings?

1. Northwestern

(somebody else pick #2......, etc).

Hurst,

I am curious if your prediction is based on putting last years champ automatically #1, or if you really think they should be ranked that high. I can't see how you could put them that high given all the starters they lost from last year. Not saying that they won't be good, but I'm wondering if your wearing purple under the Fort Mill colors.

Or maybe you just like to stir the pot a little...

CF....they have the best player in the state (who also happens to be a great goalscorer) and they still have a very good supporting cast. Coach is very good. They've been to the state final (I think) each of the past three years. I don't think I'm going too far out on the limb. Not saying they are a lock, but......

Who do you have for #2?

I'll give you Wando for #2, but my #1 is Lex. They are solid all around, and they return their defense. NW can't say that. NW had some tight games in the playoffs last year and I don't think they are at the same talent level. I'm sure they'll reload to a certain extent, but scoring will only get them so far...

Then you should have listed Lex as #2

I think Northwestern still has the talent & firepower to keep their #1 ranking at least starting out. After that, Wando,Dorman, Lexington, SV and you pick your order. Dutch Fork should probably start out high too with some of the club players they field. But lots of people look "should be good" on paper, so let's see what happens. For my money, Lexington vs Northwestern for the Upstate (as a rematch from he Palmetto Cup)is going to be a game worth traveling to see and probably better than the winner vs. SV at Stone.

I'll do that.

#1 seeds rarely start and finish #1 anyway.

Didn't Dutch Fork start out as #1 last year?

My point exactly.
