SCHSL hands down initial sanctions following Camden-Dreher postgame brawl

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - Just days after a postgame altercation between Dreher and Camden, the South Carolina High School League has handed down sanctions for the actions of the involved players.

According to Tammie Newman, the league's public relations director, players who have been identified as part of the incident will be suspended for this week's game with the possibility of additional penalties at a later date.

"Both schools have been cooperative and helpful by providing the results of their individual investigations," said SCHSL assistant commissioner Skip Lax. "It was with the assistance of the schools that we were able to identify the athletes that were involved."

The SCHSL governing body will allow the teams to compete this Friday in their respective regular season football games, but team sanctions will be determined later if there are any to be handed out.
