Tates Creek/Henry Clay fight

[The Professor]

During my teaching days I always thought it was easier to break up a fight between boys than girls. With boys usually one will back off after a punch or so but with girls after the punches are thrown there's the eventual wrestling on the floor with death grips on each other's hair, while continuing to punch with one fist and kick with the legs. I've come out of some of those struggles with a few bruises myself.

I'm sure that is the best plan of action but it seems that it would be hard to see a kid getting attacked and not try to help.

 

Agreed but maybe let the teams' adults handle it.

Agreed but maybe let the teams' adults handle it.

I don't doubt that's the best course of action. My reaction would be to try to stop it myself.

This had to be building up all game. I don't think they just got to the jump ball and decided to throw punches.

Given the history of violence between these two programs, why was the officiating so loose? Look at the beginning of the play, notice the girl going to the basket is being arm barred the entire way. In this type of game, given the history, you can't let calls like this go. You have to call every thing, even if teams don't have enough kids to finish. 3 officials on the court and not one can see a girl being arm barred for over 20 feet?

That #34 for Henry Clay should be suspended forever.

 

She was getting her "shots in" one way or another.....pun intended.

 

I would think she has seen her last game of the year.

[Jesse James]

More to this than just a heated couple of games.....

Hate to see this at any level but especially in HS.

[Hilltopper2005]

Does anybody know how long it will take the KHSAA to act on the suspensions and if the schools will self impose suspensions?

[jericho]

I love watching those idiot parents run down to help little Susie.

Girls get dirty and hold grudges and get super duper emotional in these situations, much more so than guys. I would say that's my opinion but I believe that's pretty much fact. Those girl fights can get pretty darn ugly.

I wouldnt be opposed to criminal charges against # 34 .

Maybe they just stopped it and declared the game final, with that being the score.
