\n<p>A\u00a0Helias Catholic High School\u00a0freshman was ruled ineligible from participating in high school sports for up to a year because he ran in what the\u00a0Missouri High School Activities Association\u00a0(MSHSAA) considers a \u0093non-school competition.\u0094<\/p>
\n<p>Fifteen-year-old James Vignola ran nearly seven miles near Boonville in the\u00a0LIFE Runners A-Cross the Country Pro-Life Relay. He knew going into the run that it would affect his cross country and track careers at Helias.<\/p><BR>
