Coach involvement in fight

If it happened like the article says, the police need to get over themselves. Drop the charges and move on.

The police shouldn't even be on the court for a player-only fight to begin with. Let the officials and coaches handle it and worry about the crowd until an official asks for your help.

We don't know what the policies are for individual schools or school districts.

I know here in this part of Virginia, most on field/court fights escalate into fan involvement.

So people in civilian clothes came onto the court, and one of them has a player down on the floor and is on top of the player? And the coach shoves the civilian dressed guy off his player and then ends up arrested?

Either that's not the whole story, or these charges will be dropped fairly quickly.

Fights around here are very rare. I'm not sure if I've ever heard of a fight between players on the court/field. I'm sure it has happened, just not recently. I have heard of fans getting into fights between themselves in the stands, which I'm all for the police getting involved in.
