Hate this for the young man...... And his team. I would think it's a 100 percent participation kinda thing. Unless you are pitching that day. Injuries are part of it.
I am all for multiple sport athletes. I always say play as many as you can in high school.
But during that sports season, a player should not be going through drills for another sport. Particularly contact drills.
It's my understanding this was a decision by coach, not player.
The kid has a future playing D1 baseball. Having baseball kids in pads in April during the district season and playoffs is a good way to get all those kids to quit football.
