UIL Restores Lewisville Quarterback Laykon Brassfield's Eligibility

Overview

• The University Interscholastic League State Executive Committee voted unanimously 6-0 on Thursday to restore Laykon Brassfield’s athletic eligibility.
• A local 5-6A district executive committee had ruled Brassfield ineligible in September and Lewisville vacated three non-district wins while he missed four games.
• The state panel reversed the DEC decision after finding the family ended a lease tied to an Argyle address and provided corroborating materials and house checks showing residence in Lewisville.
• Brassfield is cleared to play in Lewisville’s Oct. 23 district game at Flower Mound, but it is unclear whether he or backup Aiden Evans will start and both are expected to see the field.
• The UIL restored Brassfield’s right to play but left the three previously vacated non‑district wins in place, underscoring that eligibility reversals do not always undo ancillary penalties and that standings and roster plans could still be affected.
