Too easy. Unless, of course, they were male cheerleaders.

I must admit that I "clipped" a cheerleader a few years back. I was completely unaware of it till an angry mother came up and confronted me. I actually remember during the game running down the floor and it felt like I hit something but didn't see anything so just ignored it. Come to find out I sent a poor girl flying about 4 rows into the bleachers. Oops.

Et tu, Brute?

Since everybody else is lining up at the confessional, I might as well admit I did, too. Back in college I sandwiched an seventh grade cheerleader between me and a concrete block wall on the end of a fast break. Her relative, how shall I say it, "portliness" cushioned me from injury, but she didn't fare too well.
Thanks to all who responded to this relevant post. Your responses have been summarized and communicated to the AD involved.

You knocked a person that far and didn't realize you ran in to something as big as a person (even if it was a small teenage)?

I'd think that running into someone even half my size such that they were knocked back that far would be obvious...and probably hurt a little.

Nope. Saw the tape. She weighed MAYBE 80 lbs and was standing very close to the sidelines. You can see where I looked back thinking I hit something, but the video shows her several rows in the bleacher. She may have been startled and jumped while i hit her, couldn't tell. I just remember thinking I hit something and looking back and not seeing anything so I just kept going.
Luckily the AD and Prinicpal were there to help out. THey both told the mother "That is why we don't let our students walk down the sides of the court when the ball is in play".
And not that I am completely heartless. I ALMOST felt bad
