Elizabeth Lambert has been barred from all future games

An unbelievable display of foul play has resulted in an indefinite suspension for a college soccer player in the United States.
 
The University of New Mexico’s Elizabeth Lambert has been barred from all future games after punching, kicking and hair pulling against rivals BYU. The match referees missed all the incidents, but not the television cameras.
 
Lambert has since apologised for her unladylike indiscretions.

Definitely she should be banned for life as this is not something that occurs on a first time basis. She is only apologetic because she was caught. Not only should she be banned but also kicked out of school for assault. The BYU players should file charges. Her parents and coach should be ashamed.

shame on that hooligan; shame on her coach and her parents. looks like nodody taught that low life right from wrong. she does not belong on a sport team. she belongs on a gang. shame on the officials too. they too should be banned from officiating.

Where were the referees and the coach during this game? She should have gotten a red card, not yellow 77 minutes into the game. I have an 11 year old daughter playing soccer and her coach would never let that happen on the field.

This girl should be kicked out of school! I highly doubt that this was the first time she done this sort of thing, just the first time she got caught. I also have a hard time believing that her coach wasn't aware of her behavior. People need to be held accountalbe, she really should be charged with assualt.

That woman deserved the "ban for life" in any sports. She should be ashamed of herself.
