Benp is correct...

The SV team did not have all players playing in the same team. So if chemistry is what you believe makes them strong, I would argue that it is only a portion. Simply they are good players playing with good players and with a coach that understands the game. And furthermore it has been my experience that playing a position in club does not translate to HS as the needs may be different

Ridge View's make-up has also been impacted by the creation of Blythewood HS.

So I believe we agree that RV performed well at crunch time, but unlike most people I have always opined that RV was underrated, simply because of their record in a tough region and quality opponents outside their region. The majority of their losses were by one goal.
