@BaseballDad72 posted:There is no graduate school (goes to high academic school in the midwest) so the idea would be to keep a year if he goes on to grad school elsewhere. This doesn't do his coaches any good since he would play at another school, so it's a bit tricky to navigate if in fact he can claim medical hardship.
That's a tough spot. Coach might be thinking he could help in the conference tournament of something. I would definitely call Rick at Informed Athlete for some exert advice. Good luck.
