Rich F. -
Mary Struckhoff used to be an Assistant Executive Director for the IHSA. She has now moved to the NFHS to handle Officials. She may not have authority to punish (suspend, terminate or limit playoff availability), but she has a resource to direct comments about cheating. Mary can also blow a call in to her colleagues at the IHSA and inquire about the perceived impropriety.
When I see someone cheat on the field, I penalize them and notify the responsible authority. Jeff Rutledge just committed aviolation of the NFHS and IHSA ethics codes and he was reported accordingly. If you find this petty, that sounds like an issue of your integrity, not mine.
It is called atest for a reason. In Illinois it is used for promotion and playoff eligibility. A few points on the scores will make a difference!
