The game is over team shakes hands you go pick up your stuff at and around your bench and head to the locker room for the coach to give you his thoughts on the game then he leaves while the team showers this is when the damage must have been done if the coach did not know about it.
If the coach approves of and agrees with the punishment he will play these players as soon as they are eligible to play. If not he will not let them play at all and maybe teach them a lesson.
My guess is they will play as soon as they are eligible to play and they are needed to win the game. As I have said before parents, coaches and Administrations are putting way to much emphasis on winning.

This has been totally blown out of proportion. The locker room was not "trashed". The railing was lose but was ripped off the wall. That is not trashing a locker room. According to the Wahpeton administration they never wanted this to hit the press. A Wahpeton parent notified the press. The intention was to handle it internally. I wonder how many other cases similar to this have happened over the years that no one knew about? Maybe none but it makes you wonder. It is still wrong what the players did but enough already. The phrase "trashed" does not accurately describe the situation.
