High school sports carry pros and cons

Kevin Garner, assistant executive director of the Missouri State High School Activities Association, realizes that there are two sides to sports - the good and the bad.

During his presentation Tuesday at the Hancock Symposium at Westminster College, Hancock said that while many of the pros outweigh the cons, people have to look at both sides of the issue.

"It's not about wins and losses," he said. "It's about what it gives us. Through the wins and losses, you were able to learn something."
