We at the Inglewood Unified School District (IUSD) are saddened beyond words by the events that transpired at the football game Friday between Inglewood and Morningside high schools. We will conduct a full investigation and take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that a similar outcome never happens again under an IUSD athletic program. Our expectation at IUSD is that every athletic contest reflects the highest level sportsmanship, respect and collegiality in every interaction among players, coaches, staff and administrators. We value the hard work and commitment made by every student athlete, and regret these actions have taken the focus away from the positive strides our programs have made at IUSD.
