No. 81, who was the second player to hit the referee remained in the game.

In the video, a John Jay player wearing jersey No. 12 runs directly at an official during a play that occurred with about a minute left in the game.

Two San Antonio football players intentionally hit a referee during a high school game, sparking controversy across the nation that has ended the playing careers of both boys and could lead to the entire team’s season being canceled. As Marble Falls rushed the ball, one John Jay player lined up as a safety charged into the back of the referee, almost 10 yards away from the play. But the Marble Falls Police Department said in a statement that it is investigating the incident and the two players in question. An update will be released within the week.

Northside ISD athletic director Stan Laing said the video was “very disturbing”.

On Monday, the two players involved in this incident are suspended from the team and school. The staff from John Jay Excessive Faculty in San Antonio was enjoying Marble Falls Excessive Faculty in Marble Falls, situated about 90 miles north of San Antonio. Laing said the district is trying to get multiple accounts of what happened leading up to the play and determine what instigated those events.

Most would say that this behavior was a demonstration of bad sportsmanship to the max coming from these two John Jay players. “Not the sportsmanlike behavior we teach students”.

KENS quotes Green as saying the actions of the two Jay players were unsafe and ones a coach would never condone. The penalty gave the rival team the first down, which may have been a game changer.

The league said it is “extremely concerned about the actions portrayed in the football game between Marble Falls and San Antonio Jay”.

Gonzalez added an official investigation into the situation would begin on Tuesday with the scheduling of a due process hearing.
