Rankings October 7, 2025

Last Friday night we were at a game where there were so many bulbs out in the scoreboard that you could not tell how much time was left in the game. If we couldn’t tell how much time was left, neither could the players or the coaches. In my opinion it was effecting the play of the game.

Also, you could not tell what the visitors score was. If you had showed up late to the game, you would have had to ask someone the score, because you couldn’t tell from the scoreboard.

My question is, could the state take away your home field advantage in the playoffs, because of the lack of a proper readable scoreboard?

Who is accountable and responsible for this? The superintendent, the principal, the athletic director, the head football coach, the school board?
