I want to hear what happened from somebody that was there!

underdog678

I watched the whole Salem/Cotter boys game deal and it was ugly. The game got ugly at the third quarter and there was no control from administration. Multiple incidents happened and at 2 minutes left they called the game off. I do not want to comment on coach because I do not want to influence people's opinion about the ordeal or say something wrong about it.

Before rumors get spread, here is a newspaper article from a man that was at the game for an unbiased review. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/story/sports/high-school-sports/2018/02/03/warriors-win-comes-early-end/303440002/.  The game was out of control by middle of third quarter due to bad calls both ways and fan drama.

I gonna explain exactly what when down. I was 2ft behind the Salem Bench.   This is 100 percent accurate. So game was being called very loose a lot of banging around. First problem happened when cotter player said something to our player after they gave us a charge call(in salem favor). They called a Technical on cotter player. Cotter fans flipping out some came on the corner of the court mouthing our player. So Salem coaches trying to calm the situation down pulled out salems player out. So now both fans are going crazy. Then a few terrible call later(really both ways). Salem Head Coach gets a technical foul and is pretty upset. Our assistant coach gets up to calm the head coach down. Then all of sudden a cop comes from the other side of the gym and gets in our assistant coach face yelling at him. The officer puts his on chest and kinda pushes him back. Then a lot Salem fans come rushing to his defense then other cops come running. Then all of sudden the cops cuffs our assistant coach and start escorting him out. Then everyone is getting mad about the situation. Salem doesnt finish the game and everyone leaves. Period end of story. If someone says anything different then its a lie.  I know for a fact there is video of the whole incident.  They released him because the cop knows exactly what happened.

The refs were to blame in the situation.  They let way too much go.  I mean i have seen some loose called games before but this was a little crazy.  I like a little banging sometimes but you could tell were this was headed two minutes into the 2nd half.  I seen refs get control pretty quickly in these situations and i keep thinking they would but they didn't.  I hope they release the video but i doubt they will.  Its sad what people are spreading.

not even sure why the officer came out there.  I mean it was like really quick.  The article was pretty accurate about the officer coming out there.  It was really weird.   Don't think any school official or ref asked them to come out there.

So, who was declared the winner?

underdog678

Cotter boys take the win, they were up by 13.

Greyhound#1

Oh game was over.  That was kinda the point of last tech.  The coach just taking up for his players. 

Bildo

What was the score of the girls?

Bildo

Same refs in the girls game I guess...

underdog678

Yes, girls game was a little scrappy, but not near as bad as the boys game.

I heard that  a Salem player spit on a Cotter cheerleader during the game.  Twice.  Must've been some history between those two.
Was also told that after the charge that was mentioned in a previous post, a Salem player elbowed the Cotter player in the head causing a deep gash with blood.  Which prompted the Cotter father to show his Hind end.
Supposedly the coach from Salem was in a heated debate with the official.  Then Cotter Barney Fife gets involved for some strange reason.  The assistant coach, head coaches son, shoves Barney Fife.  Mayhem ensues.

None of that is true.  No one spit on anyone.  That was Cotters justification to the cheerleader  hitting our player from behind.  Also the cop pushed our assistant coach.  What's funny about your story is these were two separate incidents about 10 minutes apart and everyone is saying it happened at the same time to justify the cop entering the court.

The person that told me wasn't justifying the cops presence.  Quite the contrary.  Said that the cop shouldn't have interfered at all.  The whole thing sounds like a  circus to me.

Refs and Cotter administration let it get out of hand before the handcuffs in my opinion. But interesting fact, in the past 2 years, Melbourne, Flippin, and Salem have all had to leave games early at Cotter for similar reasons.

Wasn't aware of Flippin, but truth on the other two.

I was just reading along like I normally do in the winter , and this one caught my interest. This is some crazy stuff , sounds like the officials couldn't keep control of the situation . Not surprising that AAA sanctioned officials couldn't control a game , if you can pass a little test you can put on a refs uniform and your off bad call after bad call.

I had to leave cotter early before as a fan I was kicked out I deserved it but the officials should have been arrested for impersonating a ref!
