LYNCHBURG, Virginia -- Five days after a fight prompted referees to shut down Virginia University of Lynchburg’s homecoming game against North Carolina’s Livingstone College at City Stadium, VUL coaches continue to look into Saturday’s incident.
“It’s a learning experience for our players on what to do and what not to do,” VUL football coach and acting athletic director Luther Palmer said Wednesday.
“We had some suspensions because that’s not the way we do things and the young men know that,” Palmer said. He added he will hold the players involved in the fight out of the Dragons final game of the season Saturday at UNC Pembroke.
The fight, which injured no players, police or spectators, started in the fourth quarter — the third straight game in which VUL’s Aaron Johnson returned a kick for a touchdown.
It left VUL with a 42-13 loss.
