Original Story 12/18/23 at 6:52am: Brenham ISD is investigating an altercation that occurred Friday night during the Brenham Cub-Bryan Rudder Basketball game at the Brenham High School Gym.
The game was stopped with 4:04 left in the fourth quarter, and the Cubs leading the Rangers 66-46 when a fight had broken out.
During the melee, one of the Cub Basketball players was injured and had to be taken to the hospital for further medical treatment.
According Brenham ISD Communications Director Brooke Trahan, school administration is looking into the matter further, and as soon as they have more information, they will pass it along.
Let me understand this! A fight occurs among players on the court of a basketball game at BHS. The stands are filled with (eyewitnesses) and the police is looking for “anyone with any information”. Really???
At first glance it appears that everything is being done to make sure that a formal and accurate report of said incident is not fully investigated. We understand that if the fight at the boys varsity basketball game at BHS is investigated, SOME PLAYERS WILL BE CHARGED! Well, do nothing so that there is no deterrent to prevent a similar event from happening again. TYPICAL!
Even though the game was stopped Brenham was credited with the win. After falling behind and winning by 20 it was an incredible statement game for the cubs. They played their hearts out and that should be mentioned. Led by Elijah’s career high 34 points and 5 steals.
