Canton McKinley has forfeited the game against Detroit Pershing. Coach Cross and the superintendent just got done meeting with the Repository. We played an ineligible player in the Pershing game and the fact that he was not eligible was not discovered until after the game. McKinley turned itself in to the OHSAA as soon as the mistake was found. Coach Cross has taken full ownership and responsibility for this situation and it has been dealt with in a very transparent, forthright, and professional manner. If The Rep does not post an update on their website today you can for sure plan on reading the details of the issue tomorrow.
