Argyle Liberty Christian, a top contender for the TAPPS state football championship, has been removed from the playoffs after league officials determined the school violated transfer eligibility rules.
The Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) made the decision following an investigation into the program's compliance with transfer regulations. The school had been considered a favorite to win the state title before the ruling.
The violation pertains to student-athlete transfer rules, though specific details about which players or transfers were involved were not immediately disclosed. The removal ends Liberty Christian's postseason run and alters the championship landscape in their classification.
TAPPS governs athletic competition for private and parochial schools across Texas. The organization's eligibility rules are designed to prevent recruiting and ensure fair competition among member schools.
