A 17-year-old high school basketball player allegedly beat up his coach after he was benched for poor sportsmanship, NBC reported Wednesday.
Jevin Allen and his 22-year-old brother, Jarrick, were charged with assault of a public servant after allegedly attacking Willis High School’s head basketball coach, Jeremy Clark, according to NBC.
“I would have never thought in a million years this would happen to me with this particular kid,” Clark told NBC.
During an away game, hours before the alleged assault, Clark benched Allen for arguing with referees, according to NBC.
Allen and his brother initially accosted the coach immediately following the game, though the confrontation did not escalate to violence, per the outlet. “If I didn’t keep my cool, something could have happened at the opposing team’s school,” Clark told NBC.
