A judge denied a request to reinstate two teens on a Virginia high school football team, upholding eligibility rules after a family move.

A Lynchburg judge denied a temporary restraining order sought by the family of former NFL player Logan Thomas to reinstate his two stepsons on Brookville High School’s football team after the Virginia High School League ruled them ineligible. The dispute centers on residency and dependency rules following the family’s move from California, with the VHSL maintaining the boys did not meet eligibility requirements, while the family claims the league violated its own guidelines. The decision prevents the teens from playing in the upcoming game, and the case will continue in court.
