Orem |
The player was identified early as a possible game wrecker with because of his play and attitude on the court towards the opponent and referee's.
The two officials discussed how to approach his attitude and knew that he was one to watch.
My partner was visibly annoyed that the player was at times not stopping at the sound of a whistle. The player would continue to try and strip or wrestle the ball away from the opponent.
Several fouls were called on the player during the course of the game.
During a transition of play for A.F. I was lead official running down court table side and was looking back over my shoulder at the action. Close to mid court I see #14 fully extend both arms and shove an opponent while saying, "Get the Fuck off". The shoved player stumbled backwards but stayed on his feet.
I immediately issued a technical foul on #14 and ejected him from the game.
I then explained to Orem's coach that player #14 was ejected for foul language.
I consulted with my partner on the administration of the technical. Questions from the score keeper required me to approach the table. Whole at the table both Orem and A.F.coaches were chirping at me. I then issued official warnings to both coaches.
2 free throws and possession for A.F. Were awarded. |
