The Kewaunee High School football team has forfeited last Friday's 42-7 non-conference win over rival Algoma after using a pair of ineligible players.

Kewaunee school officials learned of the violation on Monday and immediately reported it to the WIAA , as well as officials at Algoma.

The WIAA informed Kewaunee it must forfeit the win.  Kewaunee officials say they'll appeal and because it was an unintentional error, Algoma reportedly wrote a letter to the WIAA on Kewaunee's behalf to support their appeal.

Kewaunee, is the top ranked team in the state's medium division weekly football poll.  Neither of the ineligible players played much and didn't factor into the outcome.
