WIAA-Why not just move the game?

I agree that this school did the right thing by forfeiting and sticking to their religious beliefs! We have some Seventh-Day adventist schools in our section and every time a playoff game falls within their Sabbath the powers that be are always open to moving game times where it won't be an issue. The school in question here offered a solution that would've allowed this game to be played. If the WIAA is about that state tournament experience then they should have agreed to their solution which would allow these student athletes to participate. They should not be placed under sanctions by the WIAA!
