November 1, 201213 yr According to the news ,there could be as many 20 players suspended. The news also reported that the suspensions will be determined by the head football coach on who gets suspendid and who doesn't. (Don't kill me, I'm just the messenger). His comments were clear to me. If it was your first time in trouble you're out this week. If it was not your first time you're off of the team.
November 1, 201213 yr Anyone know more about this? Will they be gone for all the playoffs? ------------------ Nearly 20 players on the Beechwood High School football team were suspended or kicked off the team for underage drinking at a party held on the property of Ludlow City Administrator Brian Richmond. Read more: Beechwood High School football players suspended for drinking I guess the freshmen will get their chance soomer than anyone thought. I thought it was interesting that the article said they were going to play "Beechmont football" this Friday.
November 1, 201213 yr Author I would say for those who truly want to know go to the game but I wouldn't publish names here. It's not fair to the kids. I agree though the Ludlow admin should be questioned more. How can you say I knew there was a party but I didn't know there was alcohol or that it would get out of hand. Unless your parenting skills are non existent, you know.
November 1, 201213 yr If an adult should knowingly let under aged kids drink on their proprerty, are the consequences worth being the cool parent or whom ever? I don't think so. I do agree that kids will be kids and do what we all have done at that age but it should not have been allowed. There is to much to lose and nothing to gain. JMO
November 1, 201213 yr Haven't we had other kids names listed on here when they're suspended? Isn't that just part of consequences for your actions?
November 1, 201213 yr If someone gets kicked off of a team for violation of team rules I think that is probably fair game to name them, however, I don't believe we should name any players that are just suspended because it is criminal activity.
November 1, 201213 yr Nobody had a problem bashing Pike last year? That's one example of what I was talking about. I see no difference.
November 1, 201213 yr Every kid and parent at Beechwood will know the names by tomorrow and it will leak out from them. Damage is done and the players will have to live and learn. Just a shame for the players that follow the rules. Sooner or later this happens at most schools.
November 1, 201213 yr Interesting that law enforcement does not feel the need to investigate. Facilitating consumption of alcohol by minors can be a pretty serious offense in some communities.
November 1, 201213 yr One difference with Pike is he was 18 when some of his incidents happened and when you are 18 you are an adult and you are fair game.
November 1, 201213 yr Interesting that law enforcement does not feel the need to investigate. Facilitating consumption of alcohol by minors can be a pretty serious offense in some communities. I can tell you they are extremely tough cases for the police to investigate and first time offenders won't even go before a judge. In other words, huge waste of time from a law enforcement perspective and much better handled by Beechwood, Coach Rash, and the parents.
