Season Top Scorers

[lcsoccer]

Anyone can score vs. a weak team. The true finishers will find the net vs. the big boys. Running up the score means NOTHING, and it takes more of a person not to score five goals vs. a terrible team. Just my two cents.

nathan burns for South Doyle has 6 goals 1 assist in 3 games so far this season.

What I would like to know is are these players scoring 3-4-5 goals in big games, or is it against weak teams? The leading scorer for prep-xtra last season scored most of his goals in 3 games against horrible teams.

I agree with you. I would rather score one goal in an close game rather than four or five in a game against a weak team. Some teams run up the score to try to intimidate other teams they play later in the season, but if you look at their other games, it is easy to see how good they are by how they performed against good teams. In my opinion, scoring a lot of goals over the course of a season doesn't automatically make you a good player. Some of the best players in the state don't have stats that stand out, but they do have skill, leadership, and are consistent players.

Sometimes our coach sets a limit for us if we're up too bad against a weaker team. We just have to possess the ball the rest of the game. It kinda stinks but makes us better players.

yea most coaches make their team do that when they are up big. and if they dont they should. i hate seeing games like 26- 0

Brian Jones of Lexington HS has 8 goals in three games and BJ Buck has 6 (they are 4-0, but the 4th win was by forfeit!)  thumb  thumb  thumb  thumb

everything you said is true ....however, the topic of this thread is " seasons top scorers".......that means.... how many goals has an individual scored against whoever they have played. it does not mean.....who is the best player...or....who scored the most goals in games against quality competition. if you can contribute to the thread, join in.....if you want to talk about another topic...start it.....its free..its simple.

i have been on the losing end of a few blowout games, and i hate it when teams just try to posses the ball. it makes you feel like crap because they are just toying with you which is kind of humiliating and it gets me real mad which is never good because i have a pretty short fuse. i would much rather the team keep on playing their game until the final whistle, regardless the score.
