EMU-BSU Officials Suspended by MAC after Controversial Finish

In an official statement released by the Mid-American Conference, the officiating crew of the Eastern Michigan vs. Ball State University men’s basketball game will face a two-game suspension and will not be in consideration for the MAC Post-Season Tournament.

The suspensions come after a controversial finish in the second overtime of Saturday’s game, when Ball State sank a 3-point basket to beat EMU at the buzzer, 88-87. Several game infractions could have been called, but weren’t acknowledged by the officiating crew in the final few seconds of the game.
