Bolton Forfeits 9 games: Region 7-5A

 

The forfeit means that Cordova High School has clinched a playoff spot. Besides Bolton, the team hurt the most by this is Bartlett, which went from being a certain playoff team to one that needs to beat Ridgeway tonight to make the playoffs.

 

Here are the revised playoff possibilities in Region 7-5A going into tonight's final regular-season games:

 

Millington is first.

 

If Bartlett wins and Cordova loses, Bartlett is second, Arlington is third, and Cordova is fourth.

 

If Bartlett wins and Cordova wins, Cordova is second, Bartlett is third, and Arlington is fourth.

 

If Bartlett loses and Cordova loses, Arlington is second, Ridgeway is third, and Cordova is fourth.

 

If Bartlett loses and Cordova wins, Cordova is second, Arlington is third, and Ridgeway is fourth.

I will never understand why it takes the TSSAA so long to figure these things out. I hate it for Bolton as going into game '10' is not the time to just find out this.

 

Why doesn't each team submit their team rosters to the TSSAA for a determination BEFORE the season starts to find this out BEFORE any team has to forfeit any games? /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

 

Between the HL and the Bolton rulings this should be a must for the money the TSSAA is getting from ALL the schools.

It just doesn't make sense that Bartlett beat Bolton straight up and they have the most to lose. There has got to be a better way to go about this in the future should something like this come up again.

Good point! This makes no sense whatsoever. Something needs to change now.
