Carlisle, Iowa — A high school basketball player from central Iowa faces charges after allegedly decking a player from an opposing team.
The incident happened Tuesday night following Nevada’s 72-47 win over non-conference opponent Carlisle, and was captured on video.
A player from Carlisle is seen on that video, which was posted to social media, punching the player from Nevada in the gut and on the chin during the post-game handshake line on Tuesday night. It appears the player who was hit was knocked out — and it sparked more students to take swings at each other.
Reports say 17-year-old Carter Prenosil of Carlisle is charged with willful injury. Carlisle’s superintendent released a statement saying the “unfortunate incident…is not representative of the school culture” in Carlisle.
