Someones lying and I will assume that those who hid behind fake names don't know what really happened the game. As an OPRF alum, none of Fenwick's unsportsmanslike behavior surprises. I remember when the contest was heading OPRF's way the Fenwick elitists would start berating us by impling we were not at Fenwick because our Dad's had no money.

I too attended this game. A Trinity player who scored 13 point with 3 3 pointers had transfered from Fenwick. Every time this player has the ball the Fenwick student section would scream. "You s__k" or "traitor". (classy) I personally feel this is vulgar and not keeping with Fenwick's Christian values. Trinty had an exceptional season with a 30-2 record. In closing, let us move on, and wish the players and coaches of both teams well.

I was at the game and didn't see or hear anything inappropriate. Fenwick had a staff member standing in the student section the entire game. There may be isolated examples of bad behavior, but certainly nothing that should be used to tar the entire student section. The complaining about Fenwick is overblown. It was a great game with great turnout from both schools.

I failed to see the fenwick student section do anything as disrespectful as the trinity student doing cartwheels on the court during the fenwick cheerleaders' halftime routine.

I'm not shocked to hear how the student acted at the game. My daughter competed againt Fenwick for 4 years The Fenwich cheering section was disgraceful. It's not just the visitors that feel this way. I was talking with a parent of one of my daughters teammates and she was saying how rude disgusting the students and parents of Fenwick acted. I thought it was just sour grapes until one of the Fenwick swimmers said hello to her. It turned out her son swam for Fenwick. She knew the culture inside.

Not only was the Fenwick student behavior disgraceful, there were moments when it was actually frightening.

Fenwick's student behavior was appalling - degrading, rude comments and behavior. I was more amazed that there were Fenwick teachers, administrators and coaches who did nothing! Are you teaching any values at that school?

Attn: Fenwick students, your behavior on Tuesday was not worthy of your team or your great coaches. Your school is well represented and the rivalry is a good natured one. You took it too far. your language used against one Trinity player in particular was outrageous! Those kids on your team deserve better. They are good kids and parents and should not be represented by that behavior! I'm a Trinity parent and I could'nt be more disgusted! Dave and Team deserve better!

Attn: Fenwick Student Cheering Section. -Cheer for your team, not against the opponents. -Don't get personal in your comments about players, coaches or officials. -No profanity, vulgarity or sexist comments. Your collective moronic behavior was a disgrace to Fenwick High School and it's proud tradition.
