Where was the police and game administration?
"IF" this happened the moment Coach A refused to send his team back on the court the game is over by forfeit.

This was a game between two small private schools. The way I understand it, the officials were confronted as the two teams were shaking hands at mid-court. The officials were probably retrieving their jackets from the scorer's table.

The jackets should go into the locker room at halftime and the officials should be running off the court when the horn sounds, getting a thunbs up from the table. If there was a confrontation, it's the officials' fault for being around.
I've seen officials "watch the handshake" and don't understand the point. Aren't there adults (coaches) supervising? Isn't the game OVER?
I could see this happen, though. In baseball, we call those types of umpires OOOs.

Varsity does it the way you describe, JV does not (not exactly sure why). Maybe I'm showing my ignorance, what are "OOOs" in reference to umpires?
