Plain and simple, different programs have different goals.
Some HS programs (and even clubs) are geared more towards player development. Some are geared towards "W"s and championships.
And there are a handful of teams out there that are caught in the middle - especially in prep soccer.
With only minimal knowledge of Clover, it seems to me that they are a program on the rise. But as the powers on both sides of the ball in all classifications will tell you - the key is consistency. It doesn't happen over night..and it doesn't happen over three months.
Of course, once the system and tradition are in place..then it is a whole different game. Etc...
