Way too heavy with Columbia based players. Spread it out if you want the best talent!

By the way, who in the world is Howell, Orzech, and Howard? Only players I know at Lexington are Reel, Jess, and Tanner.

I would have a one man team. Thomas "The Rocket Shot" Gorman. Thats all I would need to dominate. He would own the field.

I think so. You may not like the kid, but he's an excellent soccer player. He's fast, physical, and holds the ball very well. He and Kropp use their body better than any other forwards in the state. He's got a nasty rip on top of that.

Any word yet on selections for "The Clash of the Carolinas" High School All Star team selected for the interstate game set for this July? It will be interesting to see how that roster compares with some of these lists.

The Clash of the Carolinas is limited to Seniors. Many of the "dream teams" are made up with underclassmen also, so there will possibly be some correlation, but not fully across the roster.

Yea, him nor Telford will be on my list... What about Czulinski from SV? He has the most goals on the team doesn't he? Personally I think he is the overall best player on the SV team.

What about the two black dudes from Socastee, I think one of them is foreign... Nice Speed and great shots.

Still not an Enzo or a Kropp, but probably a 2nd team.

I think Cates is overrated, unless you give him space to run on you, when you pressure him he folds

I've just never been impressed with him, especially when he is underder pressure. Apparently he plays sweeper whenever he plays club, odp, and when he was in England, that is so he doesn't have to worry about a mark, and has plenty of time to settle the ball and make a pass.

I think that Orzech fell of everyones radar with a down season last year coming off the broken foot that had him sidelined in his sophmore year. It has been nice to see him getting back to the form he had in previous years. He may not get credentials on this board but I'll bet opposing coaches are starting to worry about him again. Maybe not a starter, but good speed and willing (and able) to play full field.

Makinufall, what makes you believe Paradise is on the same level as Orzech? If I am correct I believe both tried out for the CUFC 88 elite team with Orzech making the cut and Paradise not making it. So obviously Paradise doesn't have better footskills and believe me, he's not as fast either. Paradise playing on a less than average team has people believing he's A LOT better than he really is. Myers65 is right, he wouldn't start at Lexington or several other schools for that matter.

Midland, in regards to Flynn I don't think he uses his body as well as Kropp nor does he have equal ball handling skills, put Sebastian in his spot please. Flynn also gets frustrated very easily on the field and his play suffers as a result.

Myers and Alexander: if you knew him you would understand what he was goin thru at the time of tryouts and understand he was not able to be fully dedicated to the elite squad. if you have ever watched him play he carries that team and breaks thru many defenses, as irmo's the first time and you cant say he does not have good foot skill, he is very creative. Phil Savits put three boys on him from what i heard. if he is just an average player how is he on an athletic to central florida.

Good luck to him (KP)at CFU, I know he had a rough go of it the last couple years. I must say he sure does bring a lot of attention to himself though.

I do know Kyle very well. I did not say he was a terrible player i just stated that he is not as good as reel or orzech. He has never been as good as them. I also do have an idea of what was going through his mind during tryouts, it was a terrible situation. Kyle is a great player on a terrible team, but he is only average on a good team. Dont jump to conclusions makinufall.

makinufall, I happened to be at both Irmo and White Knoll games and you are incorrect on both your statements. He did not register a shot in the first game, he had an assist, I'll give him credit for a good switch across the field that led to their goal the first game. He did not shred the defense of Irmo in the first game either. As for three people marking him in the second game. Why would Irmo triple team a player that didn't register a shot against them in a game they were missing 7 starters and 9 players total. Irmo usually runs a 3-5-2, or has for the majority of the season and if your suggesting Irmo used all three backs to mark him you are misarably mistaken. I know you are saying this is what you heard, but your source is incorrect. It could have been that a full Irmo squad put him under a little more pressure than the first time but triple teaming Paradise when they've played against the likes of Enzo Martinez, Ryan Kropp, Sean Flynn, Reel Callison, Kevin Orzech, Carey Hite does not seem like a necessary strategy to me. Paradise is a talented player and one of if not the best player on his team (I was impressed with WK center mid #17). However he does not belong on any of these lists. I also agree with Welshwizard, Terrance is definately one of the top forwards in the state as he has dominated on the Bridge 88 Elite team for the past several seasons.

Kyle most likely would have been the last foward to make that team, except for the fact that Ryan Kropp came down from CESA to play for CUFC which i think pretty much sealed kyle not making the team.

paradise made it cleat before the season he could not commit. which to his chances away.... and kropp is a great player. but he is much better than he was then. and is one of the top ten leading scorers. can kevin or reel do that... no i dont think so. he plays great for what he has to work with

terrence deas is in the top 3 along with Sebastian and Enzo... i really dont think anyone should be arguing about some paradise kid who cant make CUFC elite thats just a joke to put them up there with terrence who owns CUFC88 and Sebastian who got a national team offer and Enzo whose verbally committ to Clemson. im sure kropp flynn reel and orzech are very good but if you want a dream team theres no need for more than 3 forwards but i would LOVE to hear an argument against my top three Sebastian Enzo and Terrence

I agree with you Barca, Terrence is definately legit. However I have never seen Sebastian play so my top three would be Enzo, Kropp, and Terrence. In my opinion Kropp is more than good. He's a very talented player and makes that Northwestern attack go by the way he holds the ball, giving time for Enzo and Alex to make runs off of him.

Pat, i think people may seem biased to a location (example a person living in columbia mentioning several DF, Irmo, Lexington, SV players) just due to the fact these are the players they are most familiar seeing perform every week. I know it leads to biased teams but that is going to happen just because of the restriction of seeing all of the states elite players in both high school and club.

With My Formation, Heres my typical 4-4-2:

GK: Davis Jenkins
Def: Danny Cates
Def: Blair Rushing
Def: Aaron Peter
Def: Darwin Deas
Mid: Seth Kulasekera (Sp.?)
Mid: Vance Benson
Mid: Sammy Kleckley
Mid: Andrew Eppelshiemer (Sp.?)
Fwd: Enzo Martinez
Fwd: Sebastian Valesquez (Sp.?)

It is nearly impossible to pick a squad with the best players because there are so many. This is just one of many squads you could have. There are quality players such as Kropp, Maki, Rodgers, Moore, McCabe, etc. All these players are practically interchangeable.

yeah... i have never seen Kropp play but i have seen sebastian and enzo alot and Terrence once and i was blown away... sideline is correct... citizenship issues held Sebastian back but hopefully when hes 18 he'll still have the offer.

However everyone says Enzo is better than Kropp... am i right? and i would say Sebastian and Terrence are maybe slightly better than enzo but thats debatable... Sebastan more quick crafty and amazing ball skills type, while enzo is the strong and powerful player... then terrence has enzo's power and speed and better footwork then enzo but not quite as good footwork as sebastian... So Kropp could be the 4th best im not sure but theres not much of a chance that hes better than those 3

I believe Mike Bassett has put together about the best team you could find, the only thing that troubles me is how could Davis Jenkins be chosen over Jason McCabe when Jason McCabe started over Jenkins on their club team? Other than that looks good to me.

Bad influene - that looks like a great squad with exception you are playing to great forwards... then reel? what is your reasoning that you think he should be considered one of the best in the state when he has great speed but only 11 goals for lex, and great speed is all he has. so why would you put him there... he is no better than orzech, paradise, eads, kropp, flynn... i mean i could keep goin on if you need me to give you more options.

You've really got to stop trying to throw paradise into the conversation. People already gave their opinions on him. Reel has a decent shot, but he is very strong and very fast. Much faster than paradise and much stronger. Look paradise is good, but you cant say hes better than callison.


Oh no!

yall say callison is much better. but what is your proof on that. paradise has more goals and callison actually has a great supporting cast. and he might be faster but not by much, and paradise has a way better touch. orzech might have them both topped he has been finishing and is an all round good player. all i was sayin before is there is way better forwards to put up top with a team like that.

Will someone please recognize Austin Savage from Stratford? He leads the State in Points with 56 goals and 6 assists. Not to mention the kid is only a sophomore! He also plays on the best club team, Bridge. The kid deserves some recognition and if you have ever seen him play, you know he is top class. He lit Fort D. up last night with 5 goals and an assist. 1 PK, 4 highlight film goals, and a great splitting through ball assist. I have read just because he has a poor goal to assist ratio as a forward compared to NW, and the 2 fort d kids, and Greenville (who is hands down no dispute the best high school team in the state period), the Lincoln kid and so on. Defense wins championship but goals win games gentlemen. I see savage play a lot and he has the complete game as do some, not all of the others mentioned on this message board. Enzo great, Sebastian great, 2-fort d kids good, others I have not seen first hand. I played for a top D 1 and D 2 school, so I do know talent and Savage has it and I felt compelled to give him some praise.

GDK,
With strikers like Enzo, Sebastian, Preston, Terrence, and Watson it is hard to pick 2 out of that group. I am sure there are others like Savage (underrated) but they will get their recognition if they can keep up the performance each season. I have seen those 5 dominate for a few years (club and H.S.) It is only a "Dream Team" so put him on yours.

I just wanted to give him recognition on the dream team post but your reply is respected. Those players are great and deserve recognition but savage is deserving also and will continue to perform at a top level. Thanks for listening.

GDK,

There are 2 other teams that will disagree with you with respect to, "He also plays on the best club team, Bridge."

ok obviously you are from white knoll...ask anyone in region 4 and they will tell you that callison is harder to contain and control than paradise

i disagree with you climacool. Callison is a strong player, dont get me wrong. but from what i saw at the wk northwestern game. paradise has way better footskill and is very quick as well. he took their 4 backs on his own.... TWICE as a matter of fact. callison could not do that against northwestern. and as makin said he does not have the support callison does. by the way i watch almost all the region 4 games.

Paradise is not half as good as Callison. End of story. Who cares that a kid scored two goals in a 7 goal loss. I'm sure the NW defenders were a little lazy and Paradise made them pay, but big deal. In the palmetto cup, callison caused a lot of trouble against NW. Just because he didn't score doesn't mean he wasn't as effective. Ask any defender who has played against the two of them and I guarentee you every single one will say Callison is a lot more difficult to mark than Paradise.

climacool you say he is harder to contain? that does not make sense when paradise is the dribbler. callison is just a powerhouse. he might be better than paradise when he is a senior but not now. and no im am not from wk. i told you i have played against both of them and some club with paradise. he is just underrated because the team he is and has been on for the past 4 years. compared to callison who has more to work with and gets his name out there against the best teams in the state. but to settle this stupid arguement... they are both great players and will both play in college. kropp, enzo, valesquez, etc. are much better than both of those region 4 players

alexander. i wish we could ask a defender just to settle this. makin seems to be the only one who can make some sense. look at the team paradise plays with and then the one callison plays with. switch them on those teams and i highly doubt callison could do what paradise does on his own. look at them head to head as players.... they are about even. and you did not see the goals, so you would not know. the game was only 12 in when paradise hit the first one. then 11 minutes later came the second.

I wouldnt call Northwestern's defense "poor". Northwestern scored a few on Lexington and won and I dont think Lexington's defense is "poor" although Northwestern's attack is the best in the state. I guess their very "poor" D is good enough to hold the #1 ranking all year though.

Northwestern defense isn't necessarily poor...but they may appear to look it, in comparison to the productivity of their forwards and midfield. However, I do believe that their defense(w/ goalkeeper) keeps them out of the Graveyard this year.

They are both great players. I have had to mark both of them. Paradise is a hard worker but he's not very strong on the ball. He has great ball skills but hes not very strong. On the other hand, Callison is one of the strongest forwards in the state. He can control the ball (paradise can too), he can hold defenders off, and he also has great skills. Being a good forward is not all about scoring the most goals. Its mainly what you do off the ball when you are on the ball. They are both great players but Callison is definately the harder man to mark because of how quick and strong he is. Both have great shots. I wouldn't put either of them on the SC dream team just because there is Enzo, Kropp, Valesquez, Terrance, and several other great forwards in the state. Both are good players and have great skill though.

NWs' offense is so good that it makes a good defense...but if you can get past the strong forwards and midfield..then you will score

I have seen both Callison and Paradise play and they are both very talented.... as for whose better I think Callison overall, with his strength, ball control, and speed edges Paradise a little. Yall are right when saying Paradise might be a better forward with a better team. Either way like Link5 said I don’t think either would be on my dream team with forwards like enzo around.

As for NW defense I don’t think they are poor... In comparison to the rest of the NW team their defense is their weakest area.

While NW did score 3 goals on Lexington one was a PK take that out and both teams scored 2 on each others defense. So they are even if you go by the game those two played against each other. Overall with Howard and Howell and Osborne in goal I think Lexington’s D is a bit better than NW. NW attack is extremely good though!!

Lexington's defense is better than Lexington's offense. Same goes for Northwestern as there offense is better than there defense. Should be an interesting match up when they play again. I still say Northwestern repeats.

Give him points for consistancy! Since they both won tonight we all get to see a great game on Saturday. Does anyone know what time they play yet?

I assume some are unhappy but as I think Northwestern is the best team, many thought Dutch Fork was top notch and look what happened. Saturday will be the biggest step towards a state championship for both teams in my opinion.

I would put Miguel Teos (midfielder) from Eastside on my dream team. And he's only a sophomore! I agree will all of the players mentioned that I have seen play though.
