The reason I ask is that other than a coach, parent and player's doctor, who else would know if an injury was serious? For as much as anyone else would know, a slight turn at 2B could have been a grapefruit-sized knee or ankle the following day.
I am not questioning anyone's response, but it seems the wording could skew the validity of the information being sought. Of course, it could have very well been intended to do that.
Again, this is why I believed that NFHS should have treated the metal like other possible changes. They could have asked a few states to volunteer to allow spikes for the sole purpose of a more condensed and controlled environment which would hopefully produce a more specific view of any possible issues.
