Should New Mexico Soccer Player Be Permanently Suspended?

 
From a punch in the back to a nasty ponytail grab that yanked her opponent to the ground, the University of New Mexico's Elizabeth Lambert made for rough play in a college soccer game against Brigham Young University that earned her a suspension from the game.
 
After a video posted on the Internet highlighted her harsh movess, Lambert rocketed to unintentional online fame. Hundreds have joined the Facebook group "Ban Elizabeth Lambert of New Mexico From College Soccer," leaving comments like "Why isn't she being brought up on charges? This is blatantly assault."
 
The junior defender was suspended indefinitely Friday for her actions but received only a yellow card in the game. Read more here.

Gosh - isn't that a harsh and non-PC question? Maybe we should suggest future careers for this competitive lass,.... reality show cast member, law enforcement, politics..... Sorry, Ms. Lambert - a happy homemaker/soccer mom wouldn’t seem to be in the cards – along with the yellows and reds.

I guess the male chauvinist pig in me just loves catfights between hot young girls. My only regret is no clothes got ripped off in the process.

I'd let her play again... yea she went too far, but i guess in her defense, the other girl elbowed her in the chest first... suspend her for the season or a few games and move on

I gues her coach never told her about "good sportsmanship". I guess her parents never told her about playing nice with other kids. I guess her girlfriend/partner must have left her for another woman. Please find another focus in life, like cage fighting or roller derby. Leave our daughters alone.

Ban her from all sports......this is what you get when sports in America today is as unsportman like as it could possibly get. These kids are the ME generation, no one else is in their thoughts ever. They are being raised to only think of themselves.

If she did that on the street that would be considered assault. A suspension through the end of this season at a minimum is in order.

Thank you Hoops10!! BOTH parties have equal responsibility in this scenario.....the NM player fought back a little harder. Poor sportsmanship on both sides....suspend one, suspend them all. Refs needed to do a better job controlling the game.......Let the coaches handle it and have the media stay out of it!!!

This woman is truly troubled and need some kind of help. No way should she participate in ANY organized athletics.

Yes, this kind of behavior is totally unacceptable. I believe this is what occurs when the family and moral fabric breaks down. She should not be allowed to play again. I have also recently seen this same scenario take place on a high school field. I would also hold the parents responsible for the HS students behavior.

Dropped from the team immediately, charged with multiple counts of assault, kicked out of the school and investigated thoroughly for other instances of her ignorant behavior. Maybe 3-5 in a womens prison would tone her down some.

That girl has some serious internal anger, mean spiritedness. I suggest a anger management class at the least, psycholanalysis is better. Mean-spiritedness is not what sports is about.

Elizabeth needs to find a new sport involving full martial arts contact.
She will excell as a fighter. Poor sportsmanship for sure. I do not think she should be banned-just talked to and made to understand that what she is doing is wrong and must stop immediately or else she will be banned.

@Hoops10:
YOU need to take another look at the video. In both the pony-tail and elbow-in-the-back incidents, the BYU players were reacting to Lambert pushing them with her body. And what about the incidents where Lambert intentionally tripped players, or kicked players who were already on the ground? This is assault, plain and simple, and Lambert not only needs to be EXPELLED from the university and BANNED from sports, she needs to be JAILED for assault and battery.
