New Mexico women’s soccer defender Elizabeth Lambert has been suspended indefinitely after engaging in rough play—including hauling an opposing player to the ground by her pony tail—in the Lobos’ 1-0 loss to BYU in the Mountain West Conference semifinals.
Video footage of the game shows Lambert, a junior, committing a series of excessively rough plays, including kicking, tackles, a forearm shiver to the back—in response to an elbow to the ribs—and yanking BYU forward Kassidy Shumway to the ground by her hair.
