Tooele |
In the 37’ player Seth Nelson was booked and shown a caution for a reckless tackle. In the 67’ he was shown his second yellow by David Wright and ejected for a late hit and reckless challenge against the opposing player.
In the 74’ player Seth Nelson left the bench area as two players were ejected by David Wright. As I was separating a Tooele player from the Park City players, player Seth Nelson who was already ejected left his bench area and pushed me on the track area and said “we got this ref”. I immediately told him he never pushes or touches a referee, also he was already ejected earlier and this is a serious offense.
Please UHSAA deal with this player for pushing a referee after already being ejected and leaving his bench area to get involved in another skirmish and pushed the referee. |

During the game much disrespect was shown to both David Wright and myself. In the first half we even had Tooele fans yell out “to kill the Park City player”. David Wright and myself addressed these fans at halftime in a professional manner. They were argumentative but remained quiet in the second half. The PC administration was made aware in case they were to be removed from the game. Tooele is a very physical team that substitutes physical play for technical play. They ride a line of almost being completely out of control at times.
The coaches seem to disrespect referees even though they are both referees themselves. This goes against the code of conduct as a referee. After the 74’ and two players had been ejected assistant coach Seamus Leonard tells me “do your F*cking job. I did not officially eject him not shown him. Red card but would like UHSAA to know that Tooele HS seems to have a culture of allowing fans to scream out whatever they’d like. Allow players to be ejected and then go and push a referee. And they themselves yell out whatever they want. There is no respect for the game or the referees. I hope UHSAA would address Tooele HS coaches and this totally inappropriate behavior in their program. |
