Coastal’s Tracey Hueston and South Alabama’s Cordasia Harris exchanged phrases beneath the basket. Seconds later, Hueston began swinging — letting free a proper hook that narrowly missed Harris’ face — igniting a full-on scrum as gamers and coaches rushed the courtroom.

As soon as order was restored, officers tossed Hueston, Harris and 6 further South Alabama gamers — together with starters Daniela Gonzalez and Amyah Sutton, two of the Jaguars’ prime scorers. The others have been ejected for leaving the bench through the combat.
