Will,
Guess that has changed since I was in school. I had inner ear surgery over Christmas break my freshman year. I wasn't able to practice, lift weights or run for 3 months. I joined the team about a week before our league meet and was allowed to wrestle regionals and substate. Might have caught a break due to the injury?
Very interesting though. Is that another rule listed somewhere or did they make a ruling on it based on the individual?
Section 2: Senior High Regulations
Art. 1: The final date for school competition in all athletics
shall end on the date the state championship series is
scheduled. The final date for a member school’s athletic
practice is the date the school is eliminated from postseason
competition.
Art. 2: A student who is enrolled at the start of a season of
sport, must be a member of the squad for the majority of
the scheduled varsity contests, in order to be eligible for
post-season competition. (See Rule 14-1-1, Bona Fide
Student; and Rule 22-1-3, Outside Competition.)
