We could argue the legalese of this situation for ever - you get your lawer and I'll get mine - however they did leave the bench durring a fight while they did not participate is irrelevant by rule.
NOTE: siince the coaches stopped the progression of the players to the fight no penalty should be assesed to them they were assisting in controling the situation.
Also what the hell were you doing getting in the way of people going to a fight? sit back and relax and watch the who what and where of the situation but stay out of the middle of it.
Now haveing said what happened and the book version of it - I think you did the right thing not to exaserbate the situation by adding in a bunch of fouls and penalties that would just cause you more grief - write your report and let the league and the state deal with it. your defense for not ejecting anyone is that the fight was not between two opponents.
let us know what the league and ths state say about this situation.
