I understand where you guys are coming from here, rules violations, they are in HS, etc. I sympathise with the coach "rule set aside" deal too, if you have a jerk, you probably can't do it.

But, I still think you need to think about doing this in this case, if you can get away with it. What is best for the players (on both sides) in this situation? Heck, go to the other coach if you need to and say, "Coach, we have a clerical error, let's let them fix it."

I wouldn't do it in all circumstances, but it is something to think about doing.
