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>MrsT delivered first aid services to a local youth football league and was shocked by the number of injuries.  Personally I'd applaud my kids choach for looking out for my kids' health and well being.  I mean its only HS football. </p>
<p>175 lbs in second grade?  Hell I weight 175 lbs in grade 12!  <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/shock.gif" style="width:15px;height:15px;" title=""></p>
