The CovCath Freshmen next play Boone County @ CovCath this Saturday Dec 10th at 3pm

Not sure how good SK is but from what I have heard the Bright twins are not on the team they are both close to being 6'5.

The Bright boys are 6' 3". Not sure they would have made a difference in the game much. Word on the street has them transferring to Beechwood after the first of the year.

Thats not a suprise to me.

Because transferring to Beechwood worked out well for the last SK star to try it.

If they never played a game they should be elgible immediately, correct???

Yes.

Didnt one of them play freshman football this year?

If so, that could be a problem!!!!!!

I think one did, and the other one didnt because he had shoulder surgery, I could be wrong. Like I said either way not a suprise to me I wish them both the best, they are both good kids.

Still not a problem. No rule that says you can't play a sport at your new school. I think the only rule is you can't play the same sport at 2 schools in the same season.

I am pretty sure the transfer/eligibility rule only applies if you played VARSITY. If you have not played in a VARSITY game, you are eligible to play immediately at your new school.

Both played freshmen ball this year, one had surgery the week after football was over, not sure of the exact ailment, but all indications are that he will be released for full participation in a couple of weeks.
