Aledo High School Coach Tim Buchanan, as he’s done after every game this season, gathered his assistants last Friday night to go over another Bearcats victory. This time, the mood was somber.
“We were just sitting there,” Buchanan said. “You’d have thought we got beat. I looked around and asked, ‘Is there anyone here that feels good?’”
Aledo beat Fort Worth Western Hills 91-0 at home, pushing its season scoring pace to 69.3 points a game and running its undefeated record to 7-0. In four District 7-4A games against Fort Worth schools, the Bearcats have outscored their opponents by an average of 77 points per game.
While the lopsided victories are no doubt tough for the losing teams, Buchanan said the margins of victory are troublesome for him as well. “I’m upset about it,” Buchanan said. “I don’t like it. I sit there the whole third and fourth quarter and try to think how I can keep us from scoring.”
Others are also upset about the point spreads. Buchanan said he received notice Saturday morning that a bullying report had been filed against him by a Western Hills parent.
Under state law, school districts must provide a bullying complaint report form on their websites. Aledo High School’s principal is required to investigate the allegations to determine whether bullying occurred and prepare a written report on the matter.
Buchanan said he has the support of the Aledo administration. But he didn’t dismiss the serious nature of the complaint.
