In an ordinary year, picking the All-Lowco Football Team is a daunting task. We spend weeks collecting and compiling the stats, comparing the nominees, and consulting with coaches for insight that only they can provide, and then we take our best crack at identifying the best high school football players in Beaufort and Jasper counties.
This, of course, was no ordinary year.
The private schools played a full schedule (with few exceptions) but the public schools started later and played a reduced slate focused on region games. Some of them didn’t even get in all of those.
So how do you compare players in that unbalanced universe? For starters, it was a natural time to separate our SCHSL and SCISA All-Lowco Teams. Although there are individual SCISA standouts who certainly could cross over and star at any SCHSL program, on the whole, it’s comparing apples to oranges, and especially this season. Expect this change to become the status quo. It allows us to honor more players and measure them against their peers.
We relied on per-game averages to help level the playing field for those players whose teams were denied the opportunity to play a full schedule, but still rewarded those players who helped their teams play extra games in the postseason.
Did we get it exactly right? Probably not. But to move someone up, you have to move someone down.
Did we miss someone? Gosh, we hope not. If we did, prove us wrong next season.
Did we do our best? You bet. And here it is. Your 2020 All-Lowco SCISA Football Team presented by Local Pie.
