Greensburg's Upset Chances Take Hit

The Greensburg Pirates, currently on a miracle run in the 3A State Playoffs, already face the unenviable task of taking on the undefeated, number one ranked Princeton Tigers in today's semi-state game, about to get underway in Lafayette. Now, unfortunately, the Pirates have recently learned that they will have to play without leading scorer and rebounder Latroi Wright, a 6'3 guard who averages over 16 points and seven rebounds a contest. Wright was ruled ineligible for the game by the school due to a code of conduct violation, which was revealed on the trip to practice at Seymour's gym leading up to today's game. This development in very unfortunate for a team that is already severely undermanned as compared to the Tigers. Provided below is a link detailing Greensburg's run and the sad ruling for their team.
