This is not an uncommon occurrence. They have zero tolerance for behavior of coaches and players when it comes to these things. The only time I have ever head the IHSA take back an ejection, was because a baseball umpire ejected a player for simply wearing a jewelry item, which for the record is the same rule in basketball and football. You just remove the player. I have never heard of another case of any kind other than erroneous application of the rules by an official. This might not have been the best call, but it certainly had some merit. At least without any further information.

Peace
