Prior to the play where the individuals targeted the referee with the hits, John Jay players were ejected on separate plays, the San Antonio Express News reports. The reason for taking out the referee on the ensuing play is unclear. The players were immediately ejected for the blindside hit, and the resulting penalties helped Marble Falls extend their possession and effectively run out the clock for the game.

Northside ISD and the University Interscholastic League are investigating the incident.

“I’ve coached 14 years and I’ve never seen anything like it,” Marble Falls’ coach told the Express News.
