Scuffle Brings Suspensions
Bruin forward Shalada Allen and Trojan forward Ebony Hoffman were each suspended one game Tuesday for their altercation during Sunday’s women’s basketball game, a 67-57 USC victory.
Both players, as dictated by NCAA rules, will sit out their team’s next game.
Thursday, USC is host to Arizona, and UCLA is at home against Arizona State.
If either player is ejected for fighting again, they would be suspended for the remainder of the season.
Also on Tuesday, Pacific 10 Conference officials reprimanded USC Coach Chris Gobrecht, who received two technical fouls for arguing with officials and was ejected.
While leaving the court, she responded to heckling fans by pointing to the scoreboard.
Commissioner Tom Hansen put Gobrecht on probation for the rest of the season.
