It Finally Happened

[rockyroad]

15 years of officiating, and I finally had my first brawl last night...Women's JC ball, 7.9 seconds left, sucker punch by Blue #5 - flagrant personal. Before I can get to her, White #21 retaliates, tackels B5 (flagrant Technical)and now it's on...coaches did a good job and no one came off benches. Final tally was 3 ejections - the original two and one other Blue player who dove on top of W21 while they were still on ground...two dads come out of stands and have to be escorted out by Game Management...gotta say there were some pretty good blows landed...really came out of nowhere tho - even both coaches said afterwards they had no idea anything like that was gonna happen...turns out B5 and W21 went to rival high schools and had some kind of history, not sure what...btw: it was a 31 point game at the time (blue losing)...what a night.
