Plus, the sanctions against BM and De La Salle are nonsense. The schools had been interpreting an ambiguous rule the same way for three decades and the LHSAA randomly decides to interpret it another way on a whim.


Just curious, what was the gpa rule? Probably good for all schools to know, since I’m sure others are misinterpreting it as well.

So the three non-select schools, why were they sanctioned? I thought all the schools had the same academic issue, but I must have misread.

The rule states that a student must have a “C average”, which historically has been interpreted as a 1.5, to participate.

For the fall semester, the rule says that it must be a C average for “all graded material”

Schools have been using the previous spring semester’s GPA in determining whether it meets the C average for Fall eligibility because for Spring eligibility, the rule says you calculate the Fall GPA.

LHSAA decided that is not the correct determination despite that the rule, itself, is unclear, schools have done it this way forever, and it would be consistent with how the rules say to calculate spring eligibility.

You have to have a whopping 1.5 GPA. Super hard and unattainable I guess
