ICYMI: The NCAA pulls out all the stops in making sure an on-court flare-up like John Amores' punching spree does not happen again with the 'preventive suspension' of three referees and boosting venue security. NCAASeason98

“I don’t want to preempt the results of the investigation because we’re still going to go through all the footages from different angles as well as accounts from both sides, JRU and St. Benilde,” Callanta continued.

“As far as the players are concerned, that’s it. But the peripherals, the security, referees, and officiating, those are still forthcoming.” Some of those measures included beefing up bouncer presence on the court and near the locker rooms, plus deploying police officers by the bleachers near fans. Last Friday, November 11, when CSB and JRU both returned to the FilOil Arena to face different opponents, extra bouncers were deployed between both teams’ locker rooms, which due to a scheduling coincidence, were placed right next to each other.

On Wednesday afternoon, as the San Beda Red Lions took on longtime rival Letran Knights, referees and bouncers were also quick to diffuse multiple instances of on-court tension, while the venue barker also sternly warned fans to not throw objects on the court.
