As a follow up to this...the school now has new guidelines for the fans.
Center Grove issues fan guidelines
So if this is/was a rule, why was this kid allowed down in the FT lane area extended to begin with? When this particular action took place, he'd already been down there a couple times when another FT shooter stepped to the line.
Who owns that...officials, game site admins or both?
Look, I know the HS student sections get rowdy and are getting more "intimate" with the stuff they shout at opposing teams.
Does anyone feel the officials should have went to admin and asked them to have the kid stay in the stands? Would you have? Have you ever?
Just curious on fellow officials thoughts on this. I don't pay much attention to the fans unless it gets personal and prolonged at me.
