Hancock Christian who?
Apparently the Stockton-based charter school has changed its name to Stallworth Academy.
It just failed to tell Carmel, Monterey and Greenfield, three teams slated to play the tiny school over the next five weeks.
And while it's true it is a first year program, officials at Hancock — I mean Stallworth — failed to mention that its roster is comprised of players that are anything but new to the sport.
Seven players transferred from Franklin High, who saw its program shut down last year for CIF violations. This is a talented team that's fast and physical, as evident by a lopsided win over Piedmont.
Carmel never signed a contract. A decision will come Monday on whether to play them next week. The fact that the contract says Hancock could mean a breach, enabling Monterey and Greenfield to get out.
Sure all three schools were looking for game. But not against a team that could do more harm than good. It's not a cop-out, just a fact.
