SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Boys Varsity Soccer Rock THRILL soccer

What is going on? Granted, Northwestern is Northwestern, probably the most successful Boys 4A program in the state over the last four years, but......

South Pointe wins their first two varsity games in their program's history, 10-0 and 11-1?

Rock Hill goes to Fort Mill and puts on a respectable showing in a 4-2 loss?

Wow.....does a city that previously had only ONE "soccer school" now have THREE?

not surprising if you think about it...
A city of that size...with several prominent clubs in nearby areas...should have multiple competitive high school programs. Within 5-10 years, I wouldn't be surprised if the Rock Hill area is producing Charleston/Columbia/Greenville like results and showings in the major HS soccer events.

Most of the kids going to south pointe came from Northwestern.

no. you cant talk up Rock Hill yet. wait til they have an upset or two over some quality teams....There are still two great soccer schools, but Rock Hill isn't quite there yet.

And South Pointe is doing their thing with no Seniors.

Rock Hill is much improved this season and should be better in the future with a solid JV team in the works. One thing that would help even more would be a change at the top.

The talent pool for soccer is now being EVENLY split up amongst the three area high schools...starting with the very successful DSC 90 Green team, formerly the U16B Mutiny. Since South Pointe opened, and the new attendance lines were drawn, the students who were originally zoned to attend Northwestern, have now been zoned for Rock Hill High and South Pointe. While Northwestern will continue to have a strong program this year, I would look for all three schools to have very competitive programs in the next 2-3 years.

Realist,

You don't like their forwards? They scored a couple of nice goals against FM Monday night.

Chuck, didn't South Pointe's wins come against Lancaster and Lewisville? South Pointe definitely picked the right two teams to get wins out of.

South Pointe's wins came from Lancaster, Lewisville, and York. They play Clover friday...first home game.
