I'm not saying it was a bad idea, in fact, I think it was a good idea. I was just curious as to how he justified it.

Apparently the tournament followed CHSAA rules... I'm not sure what penalty an ejection carries over.
The gym supervisor handled the situation prior to tip-off as my partner & I watched
from afar.
I can tell you that the conversation between them took all of 10 seconds.
As a matter of fact, the coach didn't even ask me "why" his player got ran in the 1st game. Perhaps he had a great look 60+ feet away.
