Playing football at small high schools is always a tricky business, and when you lose lopsided games, it makes it even tougher.

That’s what Healdsburg High School in California has found after losing the first two games of the season by a combined score of 102-0. Following a 41-0 Week 1 loss and a 61-0 Week 2 defeat, six of the 18 players quit.

Facing a season with only 12 varsity players, the school decided to cancel the rest of its season, per PressDemocrat.com.

According to school principal Bill Halliday, the remaining players voted 7-4 to cancel the season, and there were a lot of reasons for the decision:

“A lot of parents don’t want their kids playing football,” he said. “It’s hard to watch, but I can’t question or second-guess a parent who has concerns.”

Obviously, this is disappointing for the four players who wanted to keep playing, as well as the future opponents on Healdsburg’s schedule.

However, this is the reality of small high schools today, and Healdsburg’s story is growing increasingly more common.
