MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL NOTES

Fifteen people were jailed after campus disappointment at Purdue University’s loss in the NCAA tournament fueled a noisy disturbance.

Up to 500 people took to the streets in West Lafayette, Ind., late Saturday after the Boilermakers’ 64-60 loss to Wisconsin in the West Regional final, overturning trash containers and lighting several bonfires. Officers in riot gear used tear gas to disperse the crowd.

Indiana State Police said the 15 people taken to jail appeared to be students. They were booked on charges ranging from public intoxication to resisting law enforcement and disorderly conduct. One person was jailed for attempted arson.

In contrast, no disturbances were reported Saturday in Madison, Wis., where an estimated 7,000 Badger fans turned out to celebrate their team’s first Final Four appearance since 1941.
