Just a thought. . .this is an often-argued topic.
Take a few minutes. Go to the scoreboard, and pick some of the top programs. Glance through the past several years. There are some really fine programs with some really high scores.
I am not justifying the high scores. I witnessed one school for a few years schedule weak teams three and four times EACH season to allow the "best" player to tally 8, 9, 10 goals in each of those matches. . .
I also have posted that I think high school soccer should be leagues based on quality of the programs, not classifications�with relegation, moving up, etc.
But any argument against running up the scores should have context. Look at the facts of scores. . .
8-0, 10-0, 12-0. . .not uncommon by the best programs in the state with top-notch coaches and players.
