Moments after Gainesville’s boys earned a 72-66 win over rival East Hall, Vikings coach Joe Dix had to be restrained by members of both coaching staffs and law enforcement officers after he entered the bleachers to confront a Gainesville fan. Dix’s frustration with the fan was based on comments he said were made to his wife during the closing seconds of the game. The fracas was broken up by officers, and no one was arrested.
