Looks like the switch will have to wait another year:
The Michigan High School Athletic Association issued the following statement today from Executive Director John E. Jack Roberts after the U.S. Supreme Court granted the Associations request for an appeal in the sports season litigation:
Thousands of student-athletes, parents, coaches, administrators, officials, board of education members, sports media and fans of high school sports are breathing a sigh of relief that they will have another day in court.
In granting the appeal, the Supreme Court vacated previous orders in this case by the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, and remanded the case back to the Sixth Circuit for reconsideration. It appears that the previously-issued stay remains. All indications are that no change in MHSAA Tournament dates will occur during the 2005-06 school year.
As additional information becomes available regarding the many questions that remain, it will be posted to the MHSAA Web site.
