Game Summary
The head coach for TAE came to the umpires in the bottom of the 6th and said that he was not playing the game anymore. The umpires asked if he was ok with the score. He said that he was. The umpires then declared Haverling as the winners with the score as is. Both umpires have stated in writing that this is what happened. There is also video of how this situation took place. To be clear, the umpires did not call the game because of darkness. The TAE coach said that he was done. Both coaches then agreed to the score, so Haverling wins 12 to 8. Section IV and TAE have since changed the facts of this game and wrongfully claimed the win. Section V has given up and has not fairly represented us and the facts of the case. So, Haverling will officially lose the game 8 to 5, even though this is not what happened. This is what happens when the dignity of the game is not observed.
