Lawyering Up for High School Sports
For the first time this season, Severna Park Athletic Director Wayne Mook required his coaches to record running times and player evaluation grades, then hand in that paperwork to him. It is an arduous process that many coaches find tiresome, but Mook instituted it for a reason: After a player was cut from the girls' lacrosse team last spring, the family hired lawyers to meet with the school.That's really the best part of this story (the rest is the sad tale of a lad who works hard but doesn't make it -- sorry to spoil the suspense).
