Cheating is cheating

Can someone explain to me the difference in what Guy-Perkins did and what Conway did?
Guy-Perkins played a girl who was ruled ineligible and got kicked out of the state tournament. Conway played a girl that was ineligible and played for a state championship.
"That seems fair," he said with sarcasim dripping from his chin.
The Arkansas Activities Association should be ashamed of how it has handled this state tournament situation.
I know everybody hates the Guy-Perkins coach. He has been accused of recruiting for years. He finally got caught with an illegal player and most everybody I talked to loved seeing his team get punished.
But, you can't punish one and not punish the other for committing the same violation.
Reportedly, the girl Guy-Perkins got in trouble for didn't even play that much. Conway's Sidney Stewart is a Louisiana Tech signee who scored 35 points in the semifinals of the state tournament.
Conway goes no where without Sidney Stewart and she was illegal. Yet, the Lady Wampus Cats got to use her to get to the state finals.
I don't get it. I don't know how the AAA can get away with what they did.
It certainly doesn't pay to cheat ... if you're a small school.
