Supreme Court Says Kanawha Circuit Judge Exceeded Authority
WEST VIRGINIA....
The West Virginia Class AAA state football championship game has officially been scheduled for 7:00 P.M. Saturday, December 11th. Brooke High School and Martinsburg High School will compete for the state title. The West Virginia's Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that Kanawha Circuit Judge Carrie Webster exceeded her authority regarding the eligibility of four South Charleston players. Webster had allowed the four players into the semifinal game and ruled the players eligible for the Class AAA championship game against Martinsburg after officials sought to suspend them following a fight during a November 19th matchup with Hurricane. The ruling leaves any future actions in the case with the state's Secondary School Activities Commission which will decide whether South Charleston must forfeit its November 27th semifinal win against Brooke.
