Appeals Denied: Glendale High School QB's Eligibility Upheld

A Missouri Appeals Court judge has ruled against appeals by Springfield Public Schools and the Missouri State High School Athletics Association to overturn a decision allowing Glendale High School football player Kylan Mabins to continue playing. The Mabins family sued the district after it ruled him ineligible due to not transferring from Kickapoo High School for academic reasons. MSHSAA fears that allowing Mabins to play would give his new team a competitive edge and potentially disrupt the season.
