Merrimack College homecoming game ends in brawl

ANDOVER, Mass. — Merrimack College's homecoming football game turned ugly after the whistle this weekend.

As the Merrimack and Southern Connecticut players were shaking hands, a Merrimack spokesperson says some began pushing and shoving and it escalated into a brawl until it was eventually broken up.

There were no arrests and apparently no injures, but from the video below, you can see it got pretty ugly.

A spokesperson for Merrimack said the school would have no comment and Southern Connecticut has not yet responded to a request for comment.
