A large fight at Friday night’s City College versus Baltimore Polytechnic high school football game, has cost both teams any chance of entering the state playoffs.
The brawl broke out following the game, which was played on Homewood Field at Johns Hopkins University.
It reportedly involved players, students, and community members on both sides.
In a Monday letter sent to both schools, Tiffany Byrd, Supervisor of Athletics for City Schools said “when a team engages in a fight, they are automatically suspended for the next game. For both of our teams, this means that they will not participate in the state playoffs.”
The game was the last of the regular season schedule. City won, improving their overall record to 6-3.
Poly however finished the season with a better 8-2 record, placing them 12th among Maryland’s Class 3A High School Football Rankings.
It’s not the first time such an incident has occurred between the two squads.
City and Poly have been bitter rivals for years. They have faced off against each other 133 times, with City coming out victorious in the last 10 contests.
