We’ve got one hell of a situation here!
Let’s take a trip to Virginia, where a high school track and field meet escalated into violence after an athlete allegedly assaulted her opponent by blasting them on the head with a baton in the middle of a relay race.
Kaelen Tucker, an athlete for Brookville High School, was a runner in the second leg of the 4×22 meter relay Friday that took place at Liberty University for the VHSL Class 3 State Indoor Championships. While in a close contest for the second place position, the junior was trying to go into the inside lane while making her round on turn four.

Well, while all of that was going on, an opponent from IC Norcom High School ended up smashing Tucker on the back of the head with her baton.
IC Norcom was issued a disqualification from the relay race, while Tucker was diagnosed with a concussion and a potential skull fracture.
You can check out the wild video of the incident here.
Now I’m not trying to get slapped with a lawsuit or get fired from my job, so let me say allegedly, allegedly, allegedly to cover my ass, but holy hell, if this whole thing happens to be true (and you can be the judge of that with the video)…
…what kind of punishment do you give a teenage girl for something like this? A ban? Or is that too extreme?
I’m gonna let y’all decide in the comment section.
