It's March -- Let the FIGHTING Begin!!

There will be one less NCAA women's basketball team going for the tournament this year.  Probably (and should be!) two.

Massive brawl in the SWAC.  Southern and Texas Southern had their game halted this weekend when at least fifteen players were suspended after a brawl which involved every player on the floor plus at least two or three from each bench.

It started with one of those classic block-charge situations, but the player who was charged (or committed blocking) got up in the face of the other player, and it was on.

Monday evening, Texas Southern, who was the leaders of the SWAC going into the double-forfeit, dropped out of the tournament and ended their season.

It appears Southern University should as well, especially since this is the second bench-clearing incident Southern has had in less than three weeks.  Three players were banned for leaving the bench to join an incident in a game February 21, Yahoo! reported.
