From what I have been told, the NCAA doesn't recognize the NAIA. NAIA has it's own set of regulations, not playing rules, just regulations. Guess there was a similar situation last year with other teams and the reports went up to NCAA but they refused to act on it. Don't know the ins and outs of all that bureaucracy.

Anyway, the others never really fought, just ran out and stared each other down. Coaches and us got in between rather quickly, guess the cop in me and my partner came out (yes both of us are in law enforcement). Cooler heads prevailed and no other action was really necessary. Rest of the game went smooth. My partner and I had decided another "disturbance" and we would have called it.
