What a freaking royal crock of SH**!

You can't tell me they couldn't find a way to finish the tournament when they were only 8 games away from finishing the semis. They had already played the 1A and 3A Semis They only needed the 5A,then the 2, 4, and 6s.

All the teams were already in San Antonio too.

At this point, they could have the games with absolutely no spectators - only the teams and officials. Just put the games on TV.

The kids busted their butts the whole season to have it ripped away from them.

This is a total Bulls*** deal for those kids.

It's a raw deal and hindsight is 20/20, but once the major conferences started cancelling their tournaments there was no way the UIL was going to finish it.

It's sucks but they had to do it to be careful.

At this point, I am assuming they haven't been able to practice together or train for a while. Seems like a foregone conclusion.
