No. It will be one of SCU's alphabet soup. Either the team from Columbia or the team from Mt. Pleasant. To the rest of us in the state, we see it as the same club. If FC finishes higher, the best players from the Low Country head west on I-26. If MP finishes higher, the best players from the Midlands head east on I-26.
The players that remain become the "B" team for SCU (FC & MP) and they fight it out with the Challenge team at CESA to see who finishes third (and fourth).
Rarely you get a "one-off" like a Lexington or a Palmetto United FC or a Discoveries who make a run at third place.
But the top 2 never change.
Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
