Fighting result in postseason ban
The NCHSAA provides a playoff ban for teams that have 6 ejections for any reason or 3 ejections for fighting within the same season. During the regular season, 3 teams were banned from playoff eligibility for having at least 3 ejections for fighting.
Well, it's happened again.
This past Friday in the 2nd round of the playoffs, a team that was up by 4 TDs had 3 players ejected for fighting. Today, that team was removed from the playoffs and their 3rd round opponent was awarded a forfeit.
Just curious, do other states have a similiar polciy regarding ejections and losing playoff eligiblilty?
