New Mechanics

Well let me try and clear up some of the confusion I created. When I referenced "shooting" foul I was trying to use it in terms of the original example, but you're right. This year in NCAA Womens, which is what we follow in NY for HS Girls ball, the new two person mechanics is for the calling official to go table side. If you're shooting FT's, then you will be table side as trail, no longer opposite. For the most times, whenever you call a foul, regardless of whether you're shooting FT's, the calling official will end up table side this year. Now I'm not going to go into all the mechanics and exceptions to the new mechanics as there are some as you can imagine. What they are trying to accomplish is to get the calling official near the benches ala three person mechanics. Not sure if the CCA two person manual is going to show this as I haven't seen one as of yet.
