Ineligible Player Sits On Bench, Team Disqualified After Softball Victory
May 10, 2010 /
Despite defeating Fletcher High (Fla.) in a regional final softball game, Winter Springs High will not be advancing to the state tournament. Winter Springs won the game, 5-1, but had an ineligible player sitting on the bench wearing a jersey top, jeans and flip-flops. Because she was wearing the jersey top and was on the bench (and because Fletcher High) reported it, Winter Springs was disqualified after the fact.
