Mona in hot water, could be booted from Walker Cup final | Sports

Mona High School’s spot in the ISSA Walker Cup final is in serious doubt after allegations have surfaced that the school used two ineligible players in their Walker Cup semifinal against Kingston Technical High School on Friday.

ISSA will meet to decide the fate of the Craig Butler-coached team, who also used an ineligible player earlier in the season.

This means Kingston Technical could replace Mona in Saturday’s Walker Cup final against defending champions, St Catherine High School.

The situation stems from a game against St Andrew Technical High School in the Manning Cup quarterfinal where Ronaldo Jones received a straight red card, and Carlton Brown had two yellow cards. That was the last game the players played before taking on Kingston Technical in the Walker Cup.

According to ISSA rules; “If a player receives a “red card” he automatically misses the next scheduled match in the competition in which he is eligible.”
