"The UIL (University Interscholastic League) is aware of the incident involving Fort Worth Eastern Hills and Dallas Roosevelt high school students during a football game on Thursday, September 8, 2022," it said in a statement, per USA Today. "The school and the local district executive committee are investigating and have the authority to impose penalties for involved students. The UIL will continue to gather information."
The public address announcer can be heard asking for security to settle down the ruckus, as well as a trainer to tend to a hurt player on the field.
"Dallas ISD does not condone this type of behavior among our student-athletes, coaches, or fans," the district added. "As we educate the whole student, our emphasis has been centered around making healthy decisions to resolve conflict rather than adding to intense moments experienced in team sports."
Per the University Interscholastic League, players who get ejected are automatically suspended for the first half of their next game. (iStock)
