Carbondale loses regional title over pitching rule
Carbondale forfeits its regional crown after IHSA rules say a pitcher cannot throw more than nine innings in a day. Centralia advances to the Granite City sectional after a Saturday hearing, despite Carbondale’s 8-6 semifinal win and a 3-0 regional victory on Thursday. The decision sparks anger, sadness, and questions about fairness and the role of adults in high school sports.
