Summary

The appellants seek reversal of a decision made by the Iowa High School Athletic Association denying eligibility for summer sports due to participation in all-star contests.

As a senior in high school, the student was invited to participate in an all-star wrestling tournament. His parents brought this to the attention of the IHSAA to determine if it would affect eligibility in high school sports. The IHSAA determined it would make him ineligible for summer sports.

The decision of the IHSAA is correct, because the all-star invitation was based on past performance and not because of tryout results.

The IHSAA's decision is affirmed.
