Video: Brittney Griner punches Jordan Barncastle

Women’s College Basketball got a bit more interesting last night when Baylor player Brittney Griner punched Texas Tech’s Jordan Barncastle in the face during a game.

Baylor was winning 55-39 with just over nine minutes on the clock when Barncastle intially fouled on Griner. In the clip below, you can see Barncastle “fling” Griner, who responds with a swift punch to the face. Barncastle can be seen later laughing about the injury on the bench, her right nostril packed with gauze. The game was halted for ten minutes while officials reviewed footage of the on court smackdown.

Griner was ejected from the game, and further discipline was meted out to another Baylor player and the “Texas bench” for going out onto the court immediately after the fracas.
