Oh, he knew. That team was quite used to losing. As far as I can tell the other team has NEVER won a game. They had virtually no chance of winning this game from the outset and the Covenant coach knew it.
Rather than telling his players to show mercy and not humiliate this undermatched team, the Covenant coach presided over a wholesale slaughter of a team which exists for no other apparent reason than to teach their undermatched players to lose with dignity. They did. It is too bad that the Covenant players never realized that they had an opportunity to win with dignity and mercy and instead chose the moment to run up a school record for scoring.
P-M, do you have any idea how bad you have to be not to score a single point in an entire high school basketball game of 4 quarters?
There is something else terribly wrong there, and it makes this ENTIRE scenario stink.
I agree that the winning coach was way out of line.
ZERO points??? There’s something part of the story missing here, and there’s some culpability on the part of losing coach and school that’s not also on display.
