Undefeated Texas high school football team loses QB due to UIL ineligibility
Lewisville ISD (TX) opened the season at 3-0 with Laykon Brassfield as the starting quarterback.
The Lewisville high school football team in Texas faces a significant setback after their undefeated quarterback, Laykon Brassfield, was ruled ineligible for University Interscholastic League (UIL) competition due to residency issues. The decision came from a 5-6A district executive committee, which determined that Brassfield did not meet the UIL's criteria for residence in Lewisville ISD or at Lewisville High School.
This ineligibility, coupled with the fact that Lewisville ISD plans to contact the UIL for guidance on the next steps, could potentially lead to the team forfeiting all their games, as they have started the season with a perfect 3-0 record. The UIL has not yet responded to requests for comment.
