Judge benches Gabe King over eligibility

Posted Sep 5, 2009
Northern High football player Gabe King was sent back to the sidelines Thursday after a Superior Court judge dissolved a court order that had temporarily restored King's eligibility. Judge Ed Gregory's ruling prevents King from practicing with the Nighthawks until a preliminary hearing next week. That's when lawyers representing King and the N.C. High School Athletic Association — the group that originally stripped King of his eligibility — will meet in a court to debate the player's future. (Greensboro News & Record)
