- Brookhaven Academy coaches Hunter Przytarski and Bubba Keene were barred from MAIS events for the 2026 season and fined $1,000 each.
- An unnamed Brookhaven player received a season-long ban from MAIS events and may not play until after the 2026 season opener.
- Brookhaven Academy was fined $1,500 and Lamar School $500 as part of the sanctions.
- The incident involved a Brookhaven assistant pushing Lamar quarterback Sullivan Reed, triggering the fight.
- Lamar School won the game 34-17, but the skirmish overshadowed the outcome.
- Officials removed Reed from the game; the Brookhaven coach was allowed to stay on the sidelines.
- The MAIS AAC released the penalties in a formal press release outlining the sanctions.
- The sanctions were prompted by the coaches' 'aggressive and forceful contact' with the Lamar quarterback.
