Miami Carol City football players and parents filed for an emergency injunction in Miami Circuit Court on November 4, challenging a postseason ban imposed by the FHSAA due to a brawl after a game in Grayson, Georgia. The FHSAA denied Carol City's appeal on November 1 and set to release playoff brackets later on November 6. The court hearing for the injunction is scheduled for 2 p.m. the same day. The plaintiffs argue that the ban punishes players who did not participate in the fight. Last year, a similar injunction resulted in a delayed playoffs announcement from the FHSAA.
