I have wanted to compile these statistics for a number of years but really never had the historical data to do so until this Summer. Fortunately, Kenneth Massey, who has produced the Massey Ratings for SCSoccer.com every season since 2001, was able to generate this data and I have broken it down into the following information:

*** 80 teams have finished in the Top 40 of the Massey Ratings at least once since 2001

*** 19 5A teams comprise the Top 40 "programs" the past 16 years and 7 of the Top 10 and 13 of the Top 20 are 5A 2017-18 programs - that's nearly 50% of the programs

*** The Top 10 5A programs are as follows: #1 River Bluff; #2 Wando, #3 Irmo, #4 Northwestern, #5 J.L. Mann, #6 Riverside; #7 Dorman; #8 Fort Mill; #9 Mauldin; and #10 Socastee

*** Bishop England is the highest rated non-5A program at #6 ahead of #7 Eastside (4A), #10 South Aiken (4A), #13 Myrtle Beach (4A), #14 Chapin (4A), #19 Christ Church (2A), #20 Greenville (4A), #21 Brookland-Cayce (3A), #22 Cardinal Newman (SCISA), and #23 St. Joseph's (2A)
