Sixteen-year-old Barbecue Yee's attempt in pursuing a career in baseball took an unexpected turn last year when the principal of Deering HS refused to let him play for the varsity baseball team after he transferred to that school, saying "he sincerely believed that Yee, who lives in Falmouth had transferred to Deering for athletic purposes." Yee's father sued, claiming that not playing varsity would stunt his athletic growth and could even cause lasting "economic harm."
He lost the case and Barbecue is now combining on-line home school courses with classes at Falmouth while honing his catching and pitching skills with private lessons, daily workouts at Hitters School in Saco, and travels to baseball camps, clinics, and club-team opportunities.
