The Calcasieu Parish School Board confirmed tonight that the Louisiana High School Athletic Association has handed down a devastating blow to the Washington Marion High School boy's basketball team. For their role in the brawl with Eunice during the District 3-4A opener, the Charging Indians have been suspended indefinitely.

In regard to the ongoing probe, CPSB released the following statement on the matter stating that they are “actively working with (the LHSAA) on providing anything requested for their investigation.” Meanwhile, it appears the season is over for both teams. KPLC News reports all remaining games for both teams have been canceled on the LHSAA website.
