High School Forfeits 100-0 Win

Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!

Here is the story. Apparently a Dallas high school beat another high school 100-0, and then subsequently apologized and forfeited the win. Isn’t playing your best what competitive sports is all about?

  1. I think the problem stems from the fact that the scoreless school is a tiny school for girls with learning disabilities. That and it seems the winning team was doing a full-court press in the fourth period, while already ahead 80+ points.

    If a NBA team beat another NBA team 100-0, that’s sad for the loser, but not really controversial. There’s no place for a 100-0 win in high school sports. It’s not just about winning; it’s also about learning good sportsmanship.
