DM,
Don't want to be too harsh, but I'd have T'd him after the ball incident, especially since he'd spent the entire game being a little punk, AND since he motioned to you like he was going to give the ball to you. No reason you should let him show you up like that.
You let it turn into a pissing match, and it dragged on much longer than it should have, and led to some unavoidably inappropriate conduct at the end of the game.
In the end, the kid got what he deserved, but you could have cut it off at the knees and saved yourself a lot of grief.
We're supposed to be bigger than that. But I sympathize with what you had to put up with.
