Way to go Sunrise! AHS!

I knew it was a matter of time before this thread came out. Sunrise is awesome! Sunrise dominates every venue that they play at! The problem with STA is that it does not have enough Sunrise players. It is bloated with FTL players.

Actually the question was pretty straight forward. "What happened to STA?" Did Viera play a defensive match? Was STA missing players? I did not watch game, so the question was asked. By the way, just as many Sunrise players play on STA.

Yes, but the better ones play at AH.

Unlucky headball on corner kick was their only shot on goal (practically only shot). Then viera packed them all on defense entire game. Keeper played good and STA couldn't finish.

Why is American Heritage, a private school costing $35k a year allowed in FL HS state? Imho, all tuition based, scholarship providing schools should have their own sports league/system.

I agree, and I don't understand how FHSAA comes up with the ruling. In my mind, a boarding school that scholarships kids with the sole intent of training players and building winning teams over academics should not be admitted. Monteverde and IMG are not allowed to compete in FHSAA, so why is American Heritage? Local, non-boarding, private schools that do not recruit/scholarship are fine.

The dynasty might be coming to an end now that Bob is not there anymore to recruit from Sunrise.

That is a dirty six letter word. Spread the word to end the word!

Could not agree more. Of course these schools are going to win!

All private schools provide a combination of the following: financial "need based" aid, academic scholarships, fine arts scholarships, and work study (parent works, student studies). None, I repeat, none provides athletic scholarships!!!

What you see is the best players playing in a state soccer final. What you don't see, is the parents working their tail off at night cleaning classrooms, or the student earning national merit scholarships, or singing in the school choir, etc.

How many of these parents/players knew anything about what that private school have had to offer? Not many until soccer Bob told them what they can do for them. Say what you want but many were recruited because of their athletic skill not academic.
