UL players get into pregame scuffle with opposing team!!!!

Even the women athletes at UL are troublemakers.
WASHINGTON - Sugar Rodgers scored 13 points and No. 24 Georgetown held off Louisville for a 60-56 victory Saturday in a game preceded by a scuffle between the teams.

Georgetown coach Terri Williams-Flournoy was on the court when the skirmish broke out, but had her back to it while doing a TV interview.

"It's a Big East game. Emotions are high. Both teams are very competitive," Williams-Flournoy said. "It got to a situation that it shouldn't have gotten too."

Williams-Flournoy said she and Louisville coach Jeff Walz spoke once the players were separated, discussing what had occurred and how they would each take care of their own team.

The officials called the game tightly, resulting in 52 fouls and 59 free throws.

The Big East will allow the schools to take action before determining if additional discipline is required, spokeswoman Rachel Margolis said.
