Player pushes Official

[BayStateRef]

The flagrant foul must be assessed. In Massachusetts, a player with a flagrant foul must sit out the next two games. There is no such penalty for being disqualified for five personal fouls.

Even more severe is the punishment for pushing the official, which is clearly an assault. Under Massachusetts high school rules, a student or coach who physically assaults an official shall be expelled from the activity immediately and banned from further participation or coaching in all sports for one year from the date of the offense.

I would not hesitate to write up that report.
