Final Dunkerton football game canceled in the wake of player protest

October 21, 2014 By Radio Iowa Contributor

While high school football teams across Iowa preparing to play their final regular-season games this week, the 2014 campaign has already ended at a northeast Iowa school near Waterloo.

Dunkerton has canceled the final game of the season Friday against English Valleys of North English. The cancellation is comes in the wake of a boycott to force the forfeiture of the Don Bosco football game, which was canceled last week after the suspension of a player. The player was suspended for allegedly taping a fight between two other students on October 15th.

The suspension was upheld after the school board meeting last Thursday. The team was down to 8 players and some planned to sit out the Don Bosco game because they disagreed with the punishment given the suspended player, and the game was ultimately canceled.
