I really can't believe people have not even thought of B-L to represent the upperstate in the state championship. The past several years they have come really close but this year they have the team. They have a strong force up top between two quality strikers and a midfield that dominates every game...not to mention a shut down sweeper. They just beat BC 4-2 in which the locked down the center of the field. Emerald lost the only two players they had from last year(and B-L already defeated them in a scrimmage in which past emerald players were refs) and Walhalla graduated too many seniors last year to compete with B-L strong possession game. Just my thoughts
