Tempers flare in Syracuse-Bryant game as Judah Mintz, Doug Edert and assistant coaches get ejected; handshake line botched

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — To say it got heated in the JMA Wireless Dome on Saturday night would be an understatement.

Tempers flared in a chippy basketball game between the Syracuse Orange and Bryant Bulldogs, culminating in a pair of slaps to the face after Judah Mintz drove on Doug Edert and was whistled for a charge. Edert then pushed Mintz, to which Mintz responded by slapping Edert in the face. Edert then retaliated by slapping Mintz across the head.

“Judah got pushed and he swung. You can’t do that. You have to learn. That’s a hard way to learn but that’s the way it is.
