Female High School Soccer Player Charged With Assault After Beating Opponent During Match

On Thursday, we featured a wild brawl between two women in Atlanta. When Friday rolled around, we didn’t think we’d be doing a similar story about a girls high school soccer game. We are — and the video is unbelievable.

High School Soccer Player McCullough Attacks Opponent | Lewisville, South Carolina

During a match in South Carolina, Annette McCullough — a senior at Lewisville High School — was chasing down a ball when she fell down, possibly the result of contact with an unnamed opposing player. That’s when all hell broke lose, as HuffPo explains:

Seeming to believe that her fall was the result of an intentional trip by the defender, McCullough immediately gets up and goes after the opposing player. The video shows the 18-year-old McCullough grab hold of the opponent’s hair with one hand while repeatedly punching her in the face and head until another woman runs over to separate them. [Emphasis added]

And it was all captured on video (video might take several seconds to load):

Chester County Sheriff Richard Smith told Foxnews.com McCullough has been charged with third degree assault.

“It’s an unfortunate thing that happened to the victim and for the school,” Smith said. “We very seldom, if ever, have any trouble at the school.”

The victim received several knots, but no major injuries. That may seem incredible considering WBTV-TV, which first reported the incident, said the victim was punched at least 11 times.

Referees are reviewing the tape for any additional punishment. The school has not said what action has been or will be taken against McCullough.

    This girl needs to shake her bad attitude. She was probably brought up having it drilled into her head how bad whitey is and what whitey did to their ancestors and now she carries this big old chip on her shoulder and probably will throughout the rest of her life causing racial tension. This is alot of the problem going on today. Get over it and live life to the fullest without the bad thoughts riddling throughout your head. Get a life.

      Is race bait all you got, baddoggy? You know as well as the rest of the country that blacks are drilled with racial resentment by the left for divide and conquer power. This girl is a product of that never ending beat down rage. Tribalism never stops with the rage and revenge and it is a cycle that will come back around to bite Blacks in the hind end. See Africa. It is beneath America. Try to think beyond leftist race slogans. No one is shutting up so you can live in your tribal comfort zone and not deal with the reality of what is happening.

    They should ban soccer. Seriously. It’s so effing boring. Two groups of gayly-dressed people run up and down a field for an eternity and for no apparant purpose since no points are ever scored. Finally something exciting and you’re all up in arms. Don’t worry, though. This is public school. The agressor can never be wrong, it’s always the victim’s fault if the beater is from a protected group. Just ask Holder. His silence will confirm it.

      We get it… you don’t like soccer. No mystery here. But, “gayly-dressed people”? Do you enjoy being rude to people?

      I have read a few posts where people say that blacks are violent as a result of their environment. If that is true then all the Mexican immigrants living here in Houston should be even worse. I dont hear of them cutting off peoples heads, holding gun battles in the streets with the police or bombing police stations like they do in Mexico. Why is it that hispanics that come from an extremely violent environment with far less or no education arent this violent? In Houston hispanics are the majority but dont come close to committing as much crime as blacks.

Americans WE THE PEOPLE are better than all the comments that I have read. as a friend said to me when I was in a deep hole in life, I will console you from outside support you as you climb out but I will not jump into the hole with you. When all of the commenters here speak as Americans first and stop the race thing. Lets just look at the reality you have one violent out burst from one girl against another, if ther is more to it the let the AMERICAN courts determine that. Wouldn’t we like to be better than this. CONTENT OF CHARACTER how will you comment judge your character. to the on individual who admitted being snidley, GOD BLESS YOU, my fellow american

No it is all about SLAVERY !!! Did you see the coach put is arm around the poor,poor black girl !! I am sure she is LOVING all the attention too. This will give her her fame. I bet she sues because of discrimination !! She was a victim of a HATE crime being tripped up by GREEN grass !!

      Well said!

      I had a conversation with a liberal the other day, who was married to an African woman. He presented a compeling case that, “for years the evil white man has been building private prisons for the sole purpose of locking up African men, as a means to control the Black community” Fair enough, I said, so why is it then that Africans play into this plan by commiting so much crime and violence? His stunned SILENCE was deafening! Problem with Libs is, those pescky “facts” always get in the way of a good arguement.

I have seen a reaction like this other then in hocky, BTW is just a huge fight and maybe some skating thrown in every now and then. This was nothing short of a street fight, where one person has no idea, and just gets attacked. Jail is the answer for this action and it should follow her everywhere. Others need to know what will happen if you say use her pen, or spill something on her at work. You will get the beating of your life.

If something isn’t done to stop it these type of people become bolder every day. Like obama who is becoming more bolder with each passing month. him.

      “It was a stupid fight. Happens all the time in life.” You can’t be serious…or honest! It was NOT a fight…when people engage each other in hostilities. This clearly was an UNprovoked attack! The victim was simply playing the game. In addition to facing prosecution, the attacker should be expelled from the school. If the races/rolls were reversed, that would certainly be the outcome…along with a nationwide outcry!!
      But let’s not fan the flames for a race war…I certainly don’t want it. But these issues should not be ignored, and won’t vanish if they are.
