It doesn't represent us as a school very welL' said Scott Tennis, Viewmont High principal. I think the important thing is how we react to it. It's not something we condone, and we took the most severe action we could without getting the police involved. Tennis went on to say that the sophomores and freshman won't have any penalties or punishments that carry over into the next school year. I dont think you need to punish an adolescent kid for an entire year. I believe you have to take strong and quick action, but a full year is unnecessary!' According to Tennis, Viewmont coaches made sure all players were inside of their hotel rooms at the assigned curfew. After lights out, several of the older players sneaked out and purchased malt liquor. School coaches and officials weren't aware of the incident until after the team returned home and they received a phone call from a concerned parent.

Adolescent kids are going to make mistakes. and you need to have consequences so they can learn!' Tennis said.
