I college, not giving the ball to the officials is grouped in with the other delay situations, and in the absence of any previous delays, it can be warned.

I do not work women's college basketball so I do not know what their standard is to even call this. All I know is that I will T a kid if they are blatantly disrespectful. Meaning they clearly push the ball away and I have seen guys literally tell the player, "If you do not go get that ball, I am T'ing you up." I have seen officials at the college level do that in games I was on and it worked. But not seen a T just for that reason alone, it is usually when a player is doing extra. I am going to assume that the T in this game was something they addressed and she just did not comply. Again, if the player does not do this then there is no issue.
