INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - A girls’ high school basketball game blowout got a lot of attention Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.

Bloomington South’s girls’ basketball team defeated Arlington 107-2 Tuesday night, and many took to Twitter to comment on the score. Some even tweeted photos of the scoreboard.

As of Wednesday morning, ESPN received word of the score.

Chris Kaufmam with the Indiana High School Athletic Association says blowout games like the one between Bloomington South and Arlington happen rarely.

"It's not something we like to see," Kaufmam said.

Current IHSAA rules prohibit teams from forfeiting games and the IHSAA has no "mercy" rule on the books. Kaufman says neither school has called to file a complaint about Tuesday night’s blowout.
