Sorry Chief your facts are not even close to being accurate. Riverside has been winning 3a championships for the past 20 years even when they were one of the smaller 3a schools. The difference in size between Riverside and Ft Mill currently is only about 200 students,(that's not very much), and yes Riverside is with the big fish now. with schools that have 1500 more students than Riverside, and were not complaining, we're actually looking forward to it. For the past 3 years a 1/3 of our schedule has been playing 4a schools, the same 4a schools that have been beating Ft Mill on a regular basis in playoffs. You seem to have a complex about Ft Mill not getting a fair shake. Well now 3a is for your taking. The problem is 3a soccer is dead now with JL Mann, Riverside and S. Aiken getting moved up with their student size schools at or around 1500. You should of been hoping those 3 teams stayed 3a.You would think Ft Mill would want the challenge of playing better competition. I guess your just looking for the easy ride to a 3a championship. If Ft Mill wants to get better start scheduling your out of conference games in the upstate, it will get you battle tested, make you a better team. Also your Club analogy is wrong. Transplants daughter and my daughter quit playing CESA premier before the CESA u18 2 league disaster started.
