Would be pretty amazing a small town along the train tracks to get two state championships.
Dutch Fork is Tiger Territory!!!!

I fully expect Dutch Fork to win the 5A state title, but I'm rooting for the winner of the Westside-Greenville game this Friday in the upper state title game to take it all. Regardless, the games this week & then the state title games should be exciting football to watch!

Irmo only has a population of 11,758. Thats a small town
Nov 19, 2023, 2:35 PM

Now you could add like 3-4000 with neighborhoods that border the town of Irmo. Clemson population 17,986.

I grew up just outside Chesterfield, which has been below 1500 population during my lifetime.

Still a small town. Youre not describing a small town

You’re describing the middle of nowhere. Two different things entirely.

I based it on facts. US Census figures population 11,942. Persons under 18 20.4%.
https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/irmotownsouthcarolina
I didn’t make a comparison between percentages of the population of these towns, so I don’t know what your game is. Of the native Dutch Fork population literally 95% are Clemson fans. There are two current Clemson players from Dutch Fork High school. Clemson’s first black player went to Irmo high school. Rodney Williams, who is tied for second all time for starting QB wins, went to Irmo high school. Us Dutch Forkers have always identified with Clemson over Columbia. So lol that.

Calling Irmo+Dutch Fork a small town is silly
Nov 19, 2023, 9:55 PM

These schools have students beyond what the census bureau calls Irmo. Add Ballentine, bits of Columbia, plus other areas.
‘Columbia’ is more than just the downtown area.
Not sure why it’s so important for you to claim an entire town as Tiger territory. I’m just stating the obvious when you talk population.

There are a ton of students at Irmo/DF who technically live in Columbia. Probably half, if not more.

Thats totally not true. Columbia is 12 miles from Irmo.

If you don’t know the Dutch Fork area, then don’t speak on it. Columbia is not apart of the Dutch Fork area. We have always identified ourselves and have had a different culture that is completely separate from Columbia.

Little old Chapin in the same district is now 5A, Irmo has lost some population and now 4a. I’d say more Clemson fans around than gamecocks but you also have a lot of midwesterners bringing down Ohio state, Michigan, ND, and Wisconsin fans to the area. They’re going to need a new hs in the area before long with all the growth on Chapin side.
Majority of Lake Murray area are Tigers.

Head over to the Spring Hill area and a neighborhood called Portrait Hill and you’ll find all those and more.

Lol. I graduated from Dutch Fork. My mailing address was Columbia. A LOT of what “feels” like Irmo is technically Columbia, from a census perspective.
