Chass,

Agrre with everything that you say. I admire programs such as yours (Barnwell also comes to mind) where dedicated coaches operate in under-funded or "disadvantaged" circumstances, when compared to more soccer-rich communities. My hat is off to you. When you guys make a run, everyone gets behind you, pulling hard for the underdog.

PS - I drove right by your school on Thursday while working the Summerville, Moncks Corner, Goose Creek and North Charleston Wal-Marts. (I also got to see "Pepsi Bruce" from Pinewood Prep.)


Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
