Shawnee Mission South kid got hosed because two catholic wrestlers (coaches/administration actually) lied and said they were "injured". If your religious convictions make you not wrestle a girl, those same convictions must dictate you cannot lie to gearound a catholic rule. Once again, STA and SJA show exactly what type of "good catholics" they are.
Clearly you do not understand the circumstances surrounding this event. This is not a personal rule, a team rule, or even a school rule. This is a rule made by the archbishop. These wrestlers themselves did not decide to do this, a body governing their school made this choice You could have read that countless times in this thread but it seems you refused to.
Bender, it is apparent that I do not understand this, either.
Regardless of the REASON that the young men were unable to wrestle (because of their religious leaders), the fact remains that they, instead of FORFEITING the match, took advantage of an "INJURY" (?) to default. This allowed them to continue to compete by virtue of essentially lying about the "injury".
Not what you would expect from a religion that preaches, among other things, truthfulness.
Bottom line, GIRLS should not compete at this level!
