Hogwash, The pitching count did not cost the team two games. What did cause them to lose was the lack of management by the coach and the inability of the coach to develop relievers. I know winning in high school is very important but the main goal should be in developing skills and keeping players healthy. Generally the team with the best all round skills will prevail. Too many times in the past coaches would rely on one or two pitchers and the rest would ride the bench, now with these new rules, which apply to all teams, it forces the development of players who would seldom see the outside of the dugout. So hooray for pitch counts.
