A women’s basketball game in Florida was marred by a massive brawl Wednesday that led to ejections, suspensions, and a referee being flattened in the process.
The incident took place during the Sun Belt Tournament in Pensacola, Florida, where South Alabama was playing Coastal Carolina, according toESPN.
The game had six minutes to go when Cordasia Harris of South Alabama and Tracey Hueston from Coastal Carolina moved quickly from Harris bumping her opponent to Hueston pushing her back.
I’m in the thick of it here at the Big 12 Tournament, but was just sent this video of a fight erupting at South Alabama/Coastal Carolina.
Was told there were more than a handful of ejections after this.pic.twitter.com/mKyGaM0O0I

Both benches cleared as officials tried to separate the players. Hueston appeared to have hit a referee in the head or neck while the ref was trying to push Hueston away from the fight.
Hueston and Harris were ejected after being slapped with technical fouls. Six other players were also ejected.
South Alabama ultimately won 80-70.
Referee Marla Gearhar lay motionless on the floor as the fighting ebbed until she was attended to by a medical professional and other staff, according toCBS News.
