In Bluefield West Virginia a circuit judge issued an injunction delaying the Class AA Thanksgiving Day championship matchup between Fairmount and Weirton as Big Creek High School players from War seek a title berth. The petition claims a conspiracy involving W R Fugitt and John C Greer to exclude Big Creek based on Martins Ferry High School’s rating. The appeals board previously upheld Martins Ferry’s AA rating.
