In Irmo's defense, I do not think they would ever choose to play OW. Unfortunately, they have to in their region. With region play, I am sure goal differentials will come into play at some point in their region. But it is hard to tell your subs not to play hard and not to score. I am not justifying the end result (but have been in similar situations). 10, 20 pass rule, scoring off headers doesn't work with teams like OW. Just sometimes there is nothing that can be done to even things out. Also, think about the Mom's and Dad's that traveled there and paid money to see the kid play that maybe doesn't get much PT otherwise. If anything should be done, take time off the clock or a mercy rule would be nice (Softball/baseball, etc...)
