[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

I know that the Pandemic has put the kabash on our discussions and I am posting a video of a play from the 2017-18 season that I hope will start a discussion that will benefit the newer and younger officials in our Forum.

I want to thank Abe Wyse of the 5th District Basketball Officials Association for posting it on his YouTube Channel (as well as in the Facebook group: Basketball Officials Forum (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1431...=group_comment).

The game was a Toledo City League Boys' Varsity Semi-Finals in February 2018; Toledo Rogers H.S. in the White and Toledo Bowsher H.S. in the Blue; I was not at the game and do not know who was officiating the game but the TCAL Assigner is a very good veteran H.S. basketball official himself.

I have made my Ruling known in the Facebook group and I would bet dollars to donuts that the veterans in our group know what my Ruling was. I do want to keep the discussion to the Play itself and leave Officiating Mechanics of the Play for another discussion.

Here it is and lets have some fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfGK...QboqP-IH6Sj5so
