It is my understanding that all the teams on both our girl's and boy's schedules for the week prior to the 1A football championship were contacted and readily agreed to reschedule, or if necessary cancel the games, except PCC who flatly refused to do so. This forced us to forfeit the game which will result in our paying a sizeable fine. We have appealed this to the KHSAA and are awaiting their decision as to paying a fine or forcing a reschedule. We most definitely are not afraid of playing PCC, but feel at this time all our concentration should be on football since it is such a big honor to our program to be playing for the championship. Also, we have several injured players on our boy's basketball team, plus several that play football would, of course, not be available for basketball, so our team would be comprised of 8th graders with a few JV and two seniors and one junior. This simply is not acceptable and would place the players who are at full speed under additional pressure to perform. Thus, we sought to reschedule this game.
