Below are statements by the NCAA and the TSSAA.  I don’t know which one is worse.  That the NCAA is so caviler about deferring any responsibility that it was specifically organized to accept or that the TSSAA is so quick to advertise its safety cause based on one tragic case out of millions that it decides to consider.  Certainly shame on the ladder for using the case to gain favor by preventing to be involved.  "Number one priority"  who are these clowns kidding.  Unfortunately, Both organization have long ago lost their purpose and now only serve those not and never in the game.

Well, at least until the next court filing:

 

“The NCAA denies that it has a legal duty to protect student-athletes,†the court filing stated, which was obtained by The Washington Times. “But [the NCAA] admits that it was ‘founded to protect young people from the dangerous and exploitative athletic practices of the time.’â€

Childress said the details of Garstin's case is being turned over to the National Federation of High Schools. The Sports Medical Advisory Committee could make recommendations for high school wrestling rules based on the case.

"It's a major concern for us anytime we've got a student athlete that's injured," said Childress. "Our number one priority in all of our sports is to keep our athletes safe."
