Events at L-P High seem staggering

So, last Friday night while I was sitting in the press box in Morris for the Redskins' game against Oak Lawn Richards, a story came across on the Morris Daily Herald Twitter feed that caught my eye. In a fantastic piece of reporting by the La Salle NewsTribune, they uncovered a horrifying scandal about the football team.

If you missed it, basically someone close enough to the football program leaked sensitive information about the team to opposing coaches. This private information was said to include plays, formations and scouting reports about the Cavaliers' football players.

La Salle-Peru High School Superintendent Steve Wrobleski was quoted for the story as saying, "The piece that was most troubling and quite honestly sickening to us is there was a page that listed 22 athletes by name and position. It said, ‘This athlete has a knee injury so if he's in there, take him out and they won't score,' so this has now crossed a line because it involves our kids by name."
