Shooting at New Hanover HS Monday (Mt Tabor had one, also).
Game scheduled for Thursday at LR. NH only practiced Wednesday due to the shooting and subsequent shutdown by the county Monday and Tuesday.
NH requests the game be moved to Friday. LR responds they would not have enough people/volunteers to work the game on Friday and it had to be played Thursday.
NH did not travel for the game and received a forfeit. They played Carolina Forest (SC) Friday night and lost by 28. Carolina Forest is solid and player Dutch Fork fairly close in the last two playoffs.
NH now counts a forfeit and a loss for this week. They now must cancel their game with Fike that was to replace the New Bern game that was cancelled.
What are the scheduled open dates for the two teams?
I would like to hear from anyone that has more in-depth information especially anyone with inside info from LR.
I think LR should have figured out a way to make it happen. A school shooting is a huge issue and I would think LR would have figured out a way to make it work.
I do not agree that under these circumstances it should be a forfeit for NH. Puts Fike in a bad situation, also.
