yes irmo does return a lot of talented players and yes all those players you listed are very quality players but this team also has a lot of growing up to do. Irmo has finished the last two seasons with a combined record of 29-15. That's not the Irmo of old that has dominated south carolina high school for the last two decades. Until irmo starts to win with the consistency like the days of old, then they aren't the team to beat. The team to beat would be spring valley. Last time I checked they were the defending state champions weren't they? As far as upperstate, I still wouldn't consider Irmo the team to beat. That honor would be Northwestern's due to the fact that they have represented the upperstate in the state championship 4 out the last 5 years. If Irmo wants to be considered among the state's elite they need to show it by winning consistently on the field
