Another case of adults ruining a kids game. Irish were leading the Cats 56-42 in the middle of the third quarter,loose ball under the Irish basket resulted I several bodies hitting the floor. Tempers flared but everything looked under control. Then some “adults” came out of the stands and tried to interject themselves. Coaches had the teams under control but when another issue arose outside the gym requiring police the officials consulted with the athletic directors and then called the game.
It was a real shame to end a good game that way. It had been a classic match-up of speed vs size. The Cats had forced a lot of turnovers with their press and quickness but also had foul issues. The Irish dominated inside controlling both boards and getting layup after layup. I unfortunately the game had a horrible ending and it will likely be another twenty years before these schools play again.
