|Charges filed in basketball brawl: "
WSFA 12 News Montgomery, AL MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - The Alabama Athletic Association has eliminated both the G.W. Carver and Valley high schools' boys basketball teams from the AHSAA Central Region Basketball Tournament.
Both teams are now on 'restrictive probation' and officials are calling the game a 'double forfeit'.
The AHSAA's Steve Savarese says he, along with several speakers, will meet with both teams on Thursday, though he declined to discuss what they would talk about in the meeting.
Savarese says the girls' teams are not affected by this decision and will continue in the competition.
