High School cancels football game due to opponent's players size

<p>A Rhode Island high school has cancelled a game for this Friday due to the size of the opposing team's players, who are much bigger than their team.  The coach is concerned about injuries and therefore prefers to take the forfeit or whatever penalty the division mets out for refusing to play the other team.  I don't remember ever hearing of a high school cancelling a league game due to the opposing team's size. </p>

<p>A 2nd grader at 175?!  My oldest two (18 and 16yo) barely tip the scale at 140, and they are both over 6ft.  You would think that with little kids they would put a size/weight restriction!</p>
