MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Braxton County head football coach Ezra Lewis has been suspended by the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission for one year.
Braxton County Schools Superintendent Dr. Donna Burge-Tetrick released a statement on Wednesday afternoon, reading in part:
On Monday, October 6, 2025, I was contacted by the WVSSAC regarding a potential rules
violation by a member of the Braxton County High School Football Coaching Staff. Braxton
County Schools fully cooperated with the WVSSAC. On Tuesday, October 7, 2025, the WVSSAC
suspended the coach for 365 days. Today, I appointed Billy McDonald as Acting Head Coach for
the remainder of the 2025 football season. It is my expectation that coaching staff abide by all
WVSSAC rules and regulations. The safety and well-being
