At the 70 minute mark during the game Saturday afternoon between Waccamaw and West Florence at Waccamaw High School, after words and shoves were exchanged, a Waccamaw player punched a West Florence player in the face, both girls received red cards. The police were called and after order was restored, the final 10 minutes were played and Waccamaw hung on to win 1-0. The West Florence player's parents are considering filing criminal charges. My question is: is a punch thrown during a game criminal? And/or should the incident be handled by the two schools and the state activities association?
