The suspension list on KHSAA represents number from both the 2010 and 2011 seasons, so this is two years of data.

628 total ejections

152 Coach ejections (since this is not about coaches, this leaves 676 Player ejections)

244 - Fighting ejections
76 - Automatic Rules ejections (example: not sliding into a base)
1 - Spitting

That's 321 ejections with no objectivity of the umpire, referee or officials judgement, these are legit ejections with no bias

I have no clue what a Red Card is in soccer or how you get one, but that is virtually all of the rest of the ejections.

So, I still ask the question of whether this is a problem in the sports where everyone thinks that a player will lose 20% of their season? In football, Players were ejected 206 times for fighting! Is it not justified to lose your season for not controlling your temper! A lot of schools have zero tolerance in their athletes handbook for fighting, thus, my guess is that the suspension did not affect those kids at all, because they were expelled from the sport all-together

What constitutes a fight ejection?? How many were for throwing punches or just pushing or shoving ? And how many times was the wrong player ejected? Had to be some judgement and maybe some bias. Guess I'm old fashioned but" NO!" there are many times I would not make a kid lose his season for what someone chooses to term a fight! A lot of judgement is involved in terming a incident a "fight".
