TryNotToSuck Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Man, those poor Gibson County players. Got done after a hard day from practice only to find out their game with Lake County is cancelled for no reason... Feel sorry for those players.

Just clarification, so if a region team gets the Covid bug and the game is canceled you don’t have to make it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a forfeit game. Lake County lost the game by not playing in TSSAA’s eyes. 1-0 Peabody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 100% correct. Covington (vs Millington) and Dyersburg (vs Bolton) will spend their Friday night at home being victorious. Peabody already won their game against Lake County.

I understand both of the arguments maybe that we would need to play LC vice versa, but would that other school do the same for you? Just gotta look at it that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake County lost the game by not playing in TSSAA’s eyes. 1-0 Peabody Actually no. According to the TSSAA Board of Control meeting of August 16, it's handled this way: Quote The Board voted to continue handling game cancellations due to COVID-19 in that same manner as last year. If a school has to postpone a game due to COVID-19, the two schools have the option to make up the contest at a later date. If this cannot be worked out, the opposing team will receive a win for seeding purposes. The team that has to postpone due to COVID-19 cases does not receive a loss. In football, if the game is not made up and the team that cannot play due to COVID-19 is the visiting team, they would remain the visiting team the following year So since Peabody and Lake County are making up (and using non-region scheduled game dates), it's a legit game.

It is legit because Peabody has rearranged their schedule. Rule says both schools have “option”. Peabody would have got the W if they wanted it.
