Utah girls basketbal team wins 108-3

By David Jablonski | Tuesday, January 25, 2011, 09:08 PM

From ESPN.com:

Would you consider a 108-3 victory in a high school girls’ basketball game running up the score? I say it is, no matter what the winning coach says.

No need to do a double take. That really was the score last week as Christian Heritage (Riverdale, Utah) defeated West Ridge Academy (West Jordan, Utah), a school with a motto of “We help teens with substance abuse or other difficulties.”

Christian Heritage coach Rob McGill apologized but suggested slowing down or playing a bit softer would have been more insulting. “I have been on the other side of this equation,” McGill told ABC 4 in Salt Lake City. “It was very insulting when teams slowed the ball down and just passed it around. That’s why I’d rather have a team play me straight up, and that’s why I played them straight up. Because I didn’t want to taunt them, I didn’t want to embarrass them, I didn’t want them to think we could do whatever we want.” McGill clearly believes this ideology given that some of Christian Heritage’s other recent victories have been by margins of 61, 56, and 54.
