Only one in the top division.  [/quote]

And what is the “top division?”

If you are referring to 6/5/4, you are sadly mistaken as many years the top team in the state has come from 5/4 and not 6.

4/5/6 ONLY signify the number of students enrolled in a school and not talent of a class.

Going back I would put up many 4/5 team as far superior to any 6 in the state. At 4, Atlee, Dominion and Glass have all had some of the top teams. At 5, the Stone Bridge “Maltz” teams, Briar and Riverside have all been consensus “best in state” teams.

And for all you sensitive private school folks, I am talking VHSL.

6A runs the state. 95% of the time the top team in 6A is the top team in the state (like Robo this year). bigger division, better players, more competition.

I believe every word of this is false. 
You must be a child and not an adult who has been around for more than the 2020s.

As stated earlier, the top teams in the state going back several years are Riverside, Briar, stone Bridge, Atlee and Glass. [/quote]

Riverside has won 5 straight State Titles. They beat Madison, destroyed Atlee, beat STAB.... Who did RoBoBo play this year? Looks like they really challenged themselves with that tough game against Fauquier! [/quote]

This is too funny. Robo has played quite literally every top team in 6A. Not to mention all though it was a scrimmage, beat riverside by 5 goals (as they do EVERY year in the preseason). There is a reason for different divisions.[/quote]

LOL the ONLY reason for different divisions is school enrollment. 
See realignment of teams going from 5 to 6 and 6 to 5 and even Champe from 6 to 4. Has nothing to do with past records and talent on the team.

Now for some facts- many years the top team in VHSL is from 4 or 5. The teams have already been listed. I will say that I think Robinson this year and only this year was the top team in VHSL. It does not carry over that 6 is better every year or that maybe a Riverside or Atlee were #2 and #3 in VHSL.

Also, if scrimmages count so would things like winter league and Robinson lost to Independence. Sure you can make all the excuses you want BUT the fact is that when you put your name to the team and they lose, own it. If Robinson is so much better then all of 6, a 5 or a 4 should not even be close- even missing players/ off season etc.

You're "scrimmage is like off-season" argument is the most moronic thing I have ever heard.  Guys that do not make the team are playing in off-season games, along with other guys who will see very little playing time in the spring.  Maybe some teams only play their starters in off-season leagues, but a lot of teams play everyone because they all paid the same amount for the league.  Let's face it, Robinson would have wiped the floor with Independence.  Stop holding on to an off-season win against a team missing 6-7 starters and playing everyone.  That is just idiotic.  How have we come full circle on this topic?  You lost to Midlothian.  How could Independence be that good if they lost to Midlothian?  Should not have even been close!  Midlothian lost by 9 to Riverside![/quote]
