From the state legislature's web site:
According to the initial BRPD statement, the victims drove themselves to the hospital for minor "cuts and scrapes".
That does not sound like "serious bodily injury".
If any of the players are charged with second degree battery, prosecutors will probably have a hard time making those charges stick in front of a jury.
