The Georgia High School Association issued the sanctions, which include a $700 fine for Lithonia High, in the wake of an investigation last week by the DeKalb School System, a system spokesman said Thursday.
"We take great pride in our athletic programs and are very disappointed to learn of these violations," the spokesman, Dale Davis, said in a news release. Stone Mountain High played one ineligible athlete and Lithonia fielded several, he said.
