The R disqualifies the wrong player.

[iref4him]

Two Fridays ago, I am the U in 2 man crew at a high school varisty game. the game is a rivalry ad close. Towards the end of the game. White 22 and 33 go for a rebound with Red 3 at Red's basket. The is a scuffle and all three go to the floor for the loose ball. The R calls a jamp ball and I step in to keep the players from scuffling any more than necessary. White 22 tries to get up and falls backward onto the floor, because someone pulled him off the pile. The R blows his whistle and points to Red #1 for grabbing White #22 by the neck and pulling him offthe pile. I din't see Red #1 do anything since he was standing next to me. But the player that pulled White #22 off the pile was his own teammate which I saw clearly. I went to the R and asked him what Red #1 did becuase I thought he did something else. H explained to me what he did and that he was throwing Red #1 out of the game for fighting. I told him I saw what happened and Red #1 was not near White #22. He wouldn't listen. I pulled him aside tried to talk to him.. He refused to listen and/or change his mind. I had to tell the Red coach that Red #1 his best player is disqualified and in our state he is out for the next game also. The Red coach lost it on me. He preceded to tell me what I already knew. I said I talked to the R but he is refusing to listen. He said I knew that red #1 had nothing to do with Whtie #22. I told him he was right and that I have talked to the R. I said the R is adamant and rihgt, wrong, or indifferent Red #1 is diaqualified and he has to have him replaced in 30 sec. I asked both assistant coaches for Red to take care of head coach and try to settle him down. He is not helping the situation by going nuts. They helped me and we got out of the game. After the game, the R and I talked, he said he knew what he saw. But I told him what I saw and that even the White coach could not figure out why we he threw Red #1 out of the game. Anyway... any thoughts, suggestions, etc.
