    That’s why I am surprised they are complaining. I have seen newspaper ads in local papers advertising for kids to pay to go to the school. No different from any other private or catholic school. The Old Lyme coach is a joke who has had literally full rosters of kids that were developed by Southeast SC. This is his last year with his so called superstar and he feels bad because they will lose against Immaculate and next year they won’t even be in the hunt.

      Old lyme coach knows nothing about the game, plays crappy favorites, full of bluster. His daughter as replacement isn't going to work either.

        they will win or lose based on their efforts -not some fat F with his excuse already in hand
        for Christ sake they arent playing the USWNT, they are playing girls their age.no matter how it goes they will survive-you on the other hand will be bitter long after they hsve gotten over it

        and if you think these kids are getting cash for playing, why dont you call up the admissions office and tell them your kids a stud and whats the offer-they will laugh and then hang up on your crazy azz
        Catholic?

            Old Lyme has the best player. Would love to see them sit back and play to her on counters
            how do you have the best player -didnt she get a scholarship from a catholic?
            the only reason it would be one sided is if all you have is the best player . IHS isnt all that

                Old Lyme shouldn't be in class S anyway, they have won the state title three years in a row. How about the coach challenge his team and move up to class M. Suffield could be racking up state titles to if they stayed in class M but they have moved up to class LL. The coach should stop his whining.

                  They should have been automatically moved up by CIAC - unless the tie for the championship three years ago didn't count as a "win"? It should have. Not sure what the logic is there keeping them in S. If he can't win in the lowest class he should sit down and stfu.

                    Read the rules

                    Thanks for suggesting, the rules state that the tournament success factors apply only to schools of choice, e.g., Immaculate. They also indicate that choice team moves up when they don't make the semis for at least 2 of the past 3 years. What does not make ANY sense is why Immaculate would move down 2 years after WINNING their division (2014L and 2016M).

                    "Each year the committee will review results from the past three years and make adjustments as appropriate."

                    Seems that they have some strong lobbyists on the CIAC.

                      Really? Then why did it apply to Suffield?

                        Suffield gets more than 25 students from out of district. So they are a school of choice

                            And they still can’t win a state tournament game, especially vs an fciac team

                              There is no subjectivity to the success rule--The rules are clearly stated on page 2 http://content.ciacsports.com/tp/soc1819.pdf..
                              Don't like the rule? Good luck getting it changed..

                              The Boys and Girls Soccer Committee voted to apply a success in tournament factor when placing schools* that draw students from outside their school district boundaries in tournament divisions. The Committee will first place schools in their divisions by enrollment and then use success in tournament to move schools up in division and then rebalance the divisions. Schools that draw from outside their school district boundaries who
                              have been in the semi-finals or above two of the last three years
                              will move up one division. Schools that have been in the semi-finals three of the last three years will move up two divisions. The most any school could move would be two divisions. Each year the committee will review results from the past three years and make adjustments as appropriate. Schools can move up or down depending on their success in tournament play.
                              *Charter, magnet, parochial, vocational technical, vocational agricultural and Project Choice schools that have more than 25 each of male/female students from out-of-district.


                              Next year IHS will be back in Class M

                              2017 IHS out second round (M)
                              2016 IHS Champs (M)
                              2015 IHS out in quarters (L)
                              2014 IHS Champs(L)
                              2013 IHS out in Semis(L)

                                Rules should be changed...there should be no cap on how many levels you move up if you make the semis or better 2 of last 3 years and you should move up regardless of successive years if you win a state title.

                                That would mean IHS would have moved to LL after their 2014 L title.

                                Furthermore, you should have to FAIL to reach quarters or better for two straight years before you get to move down ONE level.

                                That means IHS would have had to play LL for 2015 and 2016....THEN they would get to play L for 2017 and this year.
