Elementary basketball players who go school shopping could end up riding the pines for a year under a new school policy that give principals from both the student’s new and old elementary a say in if he or she is eligible to play. “It’s been an issue for over 20 years,” said Irving College Principal and long-time coach Mike Mansfield who spoke before the Warren County board of education on the issue. “As a coach, a kid could get mad at me today and transfer to another school and play against me tomorrow.”
