Caldwell Forfeits Sprint Football Game Against Mansfield on Saturday (9/14)

MANSFIELD, Pa. – The Collegiate Sprint Football League (CSFL) has ruled that Caldwell must forfeit the sprint football game played against Mansfield on Saturday, Sept. 14 due to ineligible student-athletes who participated in the contest.
 
The official final score will go down as a 1-0 win for Mansfield due to the forfeit. All statistics will count for Mansfield.
 
Multiple student-athletes from Caldwell failed to meet the required 178.0 lb weight limit at one of the two mandatory weigh-ins prior to Saturday's game. Officials, coaches, and administrators were made aware of the failed weigh-ins prior to the game, which was played under protest.
 
The decision to call the game a forfeit was made by the CSFL office on Monday afternoon.
 
The win gives Mansfield a 1-0 start to the 2019 season and is the fifth straight win for the Mounties dating back to last season.
 
Mansfield hosts Chestnut Hill at Karl Van Noman Field on Saturday at 7 p.m.
