MHSAA tournament. Neither an ejection by an official nor the resulting suspension, either for the next day of competition or the entire MHSAA tournament, is reviewable by MHSAA staff, Executive Committee or Representative Council."

Nothing will be reviewed, nothing will be changed...for ANY reason - with or without a timely report from the umpire involved. Even if the umpire says in his report "I screwed up", the player's suspension stands. A court will not overturn it because everyone that plays as a MHSAA member has agreed to play under their rulings.
So what's to discuss then? Seems like everyone's agreed to these conditions.
