It was reported today that California teams such as Buchanan St. John Bosco, Poway etc will not compete at this year's Walsh Jesuit Ironman. It was also reported on a California website that the California High School Sports Association or whatever it's called (CIF) passed rules against all high school teams from competing against teams that are not a part of its structure, no matter the state.. Football, Basketball, Wrestling are all equally prohibited.New York did something similar in response to the Lebron James Traveling Circus many years ago(2004?)This has nothing to do with the public schools vs private schools debate like Blair and Wyoming Seminary in wrestling. This ruling was passed just this past week. Whether legislation like this can be rescinded is another question. Suffice it to say, the Walsh Jesuit Ironman and wrestling overall just took a big hit and the other sports will feel the effect quite soon.
