Who are you seeing tomorrow? The Grafton team or the officials from this game?
Was this a playoff game?
Does your area have consolation games? The video shows that despite leading 36-35 at the end of 3 qtrs, Grafton scored a whopping 9 points in the fourth and surrendered 20 to lose 55-45.
BTW I don't see the whole scene as that chaotic. It isn't good behavior. It isn't smoothly handled by the crew, but the officials don't seem to lose composure. Strangely, there is some person, possibly and admin, who comes over behind the bench and chastises the coaches, then gets shooed away. Don't know his role or if he made things better or worse, but doubtful that he is someone for the officials to worry about. I don't believe that he is a coach from the opposing team. I could be mistaken here.
Bottom line: a T was issued, the officials heard some from the staff, it was passed the time to walk away and get on with administering the game.
I wouldn't have any ejections. I've seen far worse behavior from coaches.
By penalizing this and keeping it to only one T and just 2 FTs, the officials seemed to be doing the fair thing for the kids involved.
