Just my opinion
Just throwing out one player is not fair. Yes, they continued the basketball game and completed it and the team that lost was at a disadvantage because their star player was the only one tossed. Continuing the basketball game proved nothing. It crowned a champion - deserving or not is a matter of opinion.
My personal opinion would be that neither of the schools deserve the championship because of the way they acted. Yes, discipline may be handed out later to the schools, but certainly the seniors benefited from the decision and will pay no penalty. Perhaps the coaches deserve some chastisement also. We will have to wait and see how this turns out.
To me, the most forceful message would have been to continue 5-4 or stop the game depending on what on court players did during the fight. But then again, I'm just a ref, not a director.
