Cisco 6509 - SolarWinds Orion reports high VLAN discards?

We use Solarwinds Orion, Network Performance monitor. Seems like a great tool. This morning is started reporting this:

"Interface HCRHS_MDF_6509.hcrhs.k12.nj.us - Vlan172 - Vl172 for node HCRHS_MDF_6509.hcrhs.k12.nj.us has a transmitted utilization of 91 which is greater than the threshold of 75%."

How would I begin to troubleshoot what the issue is?
Thanks Experts!
