\nMcCarthy is seen in a video sitting in the bleachers during the game Tuesday. But after his stepson\u2019s team lost the playoffs by a single point to Pulaski High School, officials say that McCarthy followed the officials out of the Notre Dame Academy gym and into the parking lot. That\u2019s where the former Packers coach reportedly yelled at them and berated the officials according to Fox 11, Green Bay.
School surveillance video does show what appears to be an animated McCarthy having words with a referee who waves the former NFL coach away.
Officials filed a complaint against McCarthy with the WIAA. \u201cThis parent chose to follow the officials and berate them, which is clearly unacceptable,\u201d Janel Batten, Pulaski\u2019s athletic director, said in a statement. \u201cSome things were said, some language was used that we don\u2019t want in our gym, unsportsmanlike language.
\u201cHave you ever seen a parent walk after an official like that?\u201d Batten asked Fox 11.
Notre Dame Academy Athletic Director Steph Mathu also confirmed that the WIAA contacted him about the incident.
\u201cWe have been contacted by the WIAA regarding last night\u2019s basketball game, and we are currently looking further into this situation,\u201d Mathu said in a statement. \u201cWe will continue to stress the importance of sportsmanship and respect to our students, parents, fans, and community members.\u201d
No further actions have yet taken place over the incident.
