Belligerent,
You are right that having Charlotte to the north is a "draw" for the competitive player. It works for the girls but doesn't work for the boys after U-14 (HS conflict). However, how far does Bridge FA have to spread it's wings before it takes in eight 4A high schools? In a year or two, York County will have seven 4A high schools. Lancaster (4A) is another 30 minutes down Hwy 521. Smack in between Fort Mill and Lancaster is Indian Land, currently a 1A school but ready to explode. The Indian Land school district borders one of the most desireable areas of South Charlotte and they are building houses like crazy. Does this provide enough "quantity" with which to create "quality"? (Is it big enough????)
Also, you are telling swim that Mt. Pleasant's competitive program is dead.....what happenend? Didn't they have an incredibly successful girls team a few years back (I believe they are mostly juniors in college now)? Has that ship sailed for the last time?
