I was also @ this game and from what I remember the refs called a double foul on the 2 players, and after that they called things closer. Would you have rather them throw both players out and cost them an additional game as well. I think sometimes our 14th region refs get bad raps for not letting the players play a little, and when they do try to let them things like this happen, and then when they play down state they get beat to death and no fouls are called. You can't have it both ways. They either call to many fouls or not enough, but go to another region and see how the out of region teams are treated, you'd better be 20 points better from the opening tip to just win by 1, but when out of region teams come here they at least get a few breaks.

If that is what it is going to take for the players to learn how to be a good sport. Then yes I would have rather seen them get thrown out and suspended a game as well.
