The Alabama High School Athletic Association announced on Friday night that Charles Henderson High School’s varsity football program has been fined and placed on probation for one year for playing an ineligible player in violation of the AHSAA Transfer Rule.

The Troy school also forfeits all games won that the ineligible student participated in, including five region wins – over Andalusia, Eufaula, Greenville, Headland and Carroll-Ozark. The Trojans are now 0-8 overall and 0-6 in Class 5A, Region 2. Charles Henderson had been the second seed behind Montgomery Catholic in region play.

The Region 2 qualifiers now are, in seeding order, Montgomery Catholic, Andalusia, Eufaula and Greenville.

Charles Henderson is the fourth school forced to forfeit games this season, along with Pike Liberal Arts (also in Pike County), Coosa Christian (for the second consecutive season) and Fultondale.

The ineligible player was assessed eight games of restitution plus a preseason contest for the games he participated in while ineligible.

The Trojans were closing out their regular season at Pike Road on Friday.
