The Associated Press reports "the confrontation, captured on videotape by a parent, erupted after a dance during a March 5 home game to the raunchy lyrics of Move Somethin by LL Cool J." Alum Ray Silva, 74, described it like this: "It was like a burlesque, with bumps and grinds. I just came unglued." He shouted at the girls to leave the court and one of the dancers got into a shouting match with him after the game.
