Alto ruled ineligible for playoffs after enrollment number snafu

The Alto Yellowjackes were made ineligible for the 2022 Texas high school football playoffs on Tuesday after the UIL executive committee ruled that the school turned in a incorrect enrollment number.

The UIL executive committee met Tuesday via teleconference to determine whether Alto violated Section 351 of the UIL constitution, which covers enrollment as it relates to conference realignment.
