A St. Anthony football player shoved an official following a second penalty in Saturday's game against Austin Hyde Park.
The player, St. Anthony senior Zeke Cardenas, was immediately restrained by his teammates after he raised his arms up and made contact with an official during the third quarter of Saturday's game at St. Anthony. He was ejected after the event.
The incident comes eight days after two Jay players tackled and speared an official at the end of a contest at Marble Falls. Video of the incident spread internationally and was discussed nationally before Friday's game against Del Rio, which drew interest from national media outlets.
Hyde Park coach Dean Campbell, who is in his sixth year at the Austin private school, was not at the game after he was recovering from a heart attack following last week's game last Friday.
"Whatever happened was unfortunate, especially with whatever happened last week in Marble Falls," Campbell said. "I spoke with the coaches after the game and I didn't really ask them what all they saw."
