Frieser Legal advised five-star safety Trey McNutt during his eligibility dispute with the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA). McNutt was suspended by the OHSAA in February for competing in offseason 7-on-7 tournaments, which violated an Association rule prohibiting football players from competing in certain non-school events.

With counsel from Principal Attorney Joshua Frieser, the OHSAA removed its 7-on-7 competition restriction and lifted McNutt’s suspension. Media coverage of the rule change can be found here.
