Amazing what happens when you talk...

...about it.

Tonight had a couple of undefeated girls varsity teams. Gym is packed and since the two towns are neighboring towns, the crowd is split about even.

Visiting team down three with about a minuite left. Visting player buries a long three and the visiting coach immediately asks me for a time out.

I blow my whistle LOUD, but I had no chance in the gym that had just erupted over the made three. The visiting team was down by quite a bit and this had tied the game.

I had see the time come off and had to put time back on the clock since the timer didn't hear the whistle either and I had to step in and stop play with a second blast of the whistle. MY partner thought I had granted a time out incorrectly cause even HE didn't hear my blast from my Fox 40. Both coaches did, though. Don't know why the timer didn't.

Game went OT and the visiting team pulled it out.
