HORNET ATHLETICS
Memo
To: Whom it may concern
From: Tulia ISD
Date: October 21, 2009
The Tulia ISD has regretfully determined that it is necessary to cancel our remaining varsity football games due to the low number of participants.
Injuries, failures, sickness, and a lack of commitment on some player’s part who have quit or been removed from the program have brought us to this point. We apologize for the inconvenience that this causes our scheduled opponents and to our fans. We will continue to play our junior high and junior varsity schedules as they are posted.
