From what I have heard and unless things have changed it is all about CLUB soccer. I think Coach Shelly and Nicky coaching Club soccer is a good thing. The upper state has really picked up its game. Not that it was really BAD it just seems to have improved BIG TIME! Columbia schools are not walking over anyone any more. Back in the 90's Irmo was always knocking on the door of the state championship. I am sure they will be back there again real soon. Coach Phil is one of the best and will find out how to over come these difficulties.
