RACINE, Wis. (AP) -- Park High School's varsity boys basketball team in Racine had an undefeated record -- but now, it must forfeit some games after an internal investigation into eligibility issues.
The school district announced Tuesday that the team will forfeit some of its 2009-10 games. The number of games to be forfeited will be announced Wednesday, after class attendance records for some players are verified.
The Journal Times reports the district's athletic code on truancy requires players to have no unexcused absences during the week prior to a game.
All Park High School players are eligible to participate in the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association regional playoffs starting Tuesday, assuming they attend classes and comply with the code.
