I might agree that you allowed the game to become out-of-control but not sure of the overall tone of the game. Was it really out-of-hand? Collisions can happen unexpectedly - maybe even more than one per game such as reported for Q2 and Q3. Especially true for girls and even more so during a hard fought game.

Punching someone is a festering problem of built-up anger that you might have seen coming or even allowed to fester by not calling enough fouls (among other tactics). Perhaps the incidental collisions of Q2 & Q3 created the frustration?

The official is not always responsible for the tone of the game. Coaches have a greater stake in player control - players are often willing to answer to, and be respectful, a coach and yet be completely resentful of an official.
