法院驳回波士顿公校禁令申请,英语高中橄榄球队无缘季后赛

马萨诸塞州萨福克县波士顿市消息:萨福克高等法院法官吉利安·费纳11月6日驳回波士顿公立学校提出的禁令申请,波士顿英语高中与新使命高中联合橄榄球队确定无缘本赛季季后赛。争议源于10月30日英语高中对阵奥布莱恩特高中的一场比赛,波士顿公立学校未在马萨诸塞州校际体育协会(MIAA)规定的9月18日截止日期前,将这场比赛录入协会使用的赛程平台。波士顿公立学校主张协会未正确适用自身规则,认为这场比赛应计为对手弃权,但法院未予支持。英语高中本赛季战绩4胜2负,未达到季后赛所需的七场比赛场次。协会表示,已知悉禁令被驳回,本周的季后赛将按计划进行。英语高中11月5日进行了一场非季后赛,以0比48负于彭塔基特与乔治敦联队,球队本赛季最后一场比赛将于感恩节上午10时在哈佛大学对阵波士顿拉丁高中。

Court Denies Boston Schools' Injunction Bid; English High Football Team Misses Playoffs
A Suffolk Superior Court judge, Gillian Feiner, denied Boston Public Schools' request for an injunction on November 6, confirming that the Boston English High School and New Mission High School combined football team will miss this season's playoffs. The dispute arose from an October 30 game between English and O'Bryant High School that BPS did not enter into the scheduling platform used by the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) by the September 18 deadline.
BPS argued the association had not correctly applied its own rules and that the game should have counted; without it, English finished 4-2, short of the seven games required to qualify, and the contest was treated as a scrimmage. The judge noted that under the rules schedules are final after the deadline, and that ordering relief would have required reworking the brackets and displacing another qualified school. The MIAA said the postseason will proceed as scheduled.
