JAK and others I believe are missing the main point: this is the south carolina HIGH SCHOOL league not the south carolina SOCCER league.. the HSL must look at what is best across the board for not only every sport, but every school, and every kid! It is easy for every person on this board to disagree and that is because everyone on this board is wanting to put soccer first. As a high school football coach, I understand that 4A is divided into to divisions, BUT that is because of the major size difference between the top schools in 4A and bottom in 4A size wise.. Why don't they separate other division or even sports besides football: money. As a teacher and coach of three sports I think I have a pretty good pulse on the beat of hs athletics (not just one sport's perspective... I want every sport to be available to kids and have kids at various schools have chances for success.. But overall, when you look at multiple factors such as: every sport, geography, academics/trave, etc the way that schools are currently divided (based on size) is undoubtedly the best way...
