Quote:

Time was in SC High School, at least in basketball and baseball, that only players whose teams reached the finals were even considered for All State



Soccer is much different than basketball and baseball. One player can make a huge difference in a basketball game or a baseball game. One player does not always make a difference in a soccer game. Why hasn't Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi made it to the World Cup final? Soccer is a team sport. The best teams win games. The best players are not always surrounded by the best team. It does not take a championship to recognize the best players in the state.
