Basketball Coach Suspended For 159-Point Victory

A 159-point victory has cost a California girls high school coach two games with his team.

Michael Anderson, coach of the San Bernardino Arroyo Valley team, was suspended after his team defeated the Bloomington High School team on January 5, with a score of 161-2.

The score at halftime was 104-1.

Anderson told the Orange County Register, "It wasn't a good feeling. It's not something I'm proud of. It's not something I would put on a mantel."

The opposing coach, Dale Chung, told the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, "People shouldn't feel sorry for my team. They should feel sorry for [Anderson's] team, which isn't learning the game the right way.
