SAN ANTONIO — The two Jay football players who attacked an official were sentenced to 75 days in alternative school, according to their attorney.

Senior Michael Moreno and sophomore Victor Rojas will be eligible to return to Jay on Jan. 15, according to their attorney, Jesse Hernandez. Hernandez said the time the students have already spent in alternative school will count toward the sentence.

Jay assistant coach Mack Breed admitted to directing two football players to attack an official during a game, according to an internal district statement.

In a statement signed by Jay principal Robert Harris, Breed met with Harris the night after sophomore Victor Rojas, 15, and senior Michael Moreno, 17, tackled and speared umpire Robert Watts at the end of Jay’s nondistrict game at Marble Falls.
