It's the "national championship" of non-sanctioned high school teams. These teams play against some regular public schools during the course of the season but also travel extensively and don't have state imposed restrictions. Some of the teams may also have kids who have already graduated high school and are doing a year of prep school before going to college.

Showcase, sure. Magnitude? Nah.

Snaqs, you dont think it would be tough to whack him after that highlight play in a National C'Ship setting?
Keep in mind "tough" doesnt mean I wont call it. Afterall, tough calls are what we get paid for.

FTR, I thought it was a bit over the top for any sanctioned game, but I'd really like to see what other similar acts were passed on prior to this one.
A T here may not fit this particular situation.
