They used to have a shootout to determine the state champions after 2 OTs didn't result in a winner. Apparently they did away with the shutout several years ago after a girls' state championship came after a shootout. The goalkeeper, who allowed the winning goal in the shootout, committed suicide soon after the match ...
Now, THAT'S ridiculous (to change the rule).
Would it have made a difference (to the gal who committed suicide) if she gave up the goal in a regular or overtime time period?
Declaring "co-winners" for a reason not having anything to do with sports performance is plain wrong.
