South Carolina's Kamilla Cardoso was one of six players ejected from the SEC title game after shoving LSU’s Flau’jae Johnson to the floor.
South Carolina forward Kamilla Cardoso was one of six players ejected from Sunday's SEC Championship game after she shoved LSU's Flau'jae Johnson to the floor late in the fourth quarter. Gamecocks guard MiLaysia Fulwiley had stolen the ball from Johnson, who wrapped her up and was called for an intentional foul. Johnson bumped South Carolina's Ashlyn Watkins while heading to her bench, and then the 6-foot-7 Cardoso rushed in and pushed the 5-foot-10 Johnson to the ground.
A man identified on the ESPN telecast as Johnson's brother jumped over the scorer's table onto the court and briefly made contact with Cardoso before being escorted away by police officers. Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley was screaming towards the LSU bench. The Gamecocks led 73-66 with 2:08 to play when the dust-up took place, and the game was delayed for about 15 minutes while officials reviewed video of the incident.
