(NCAA-W) Had a game suspended a month ago just 2 minutes in. Last night, we made it up and I'm still scratching my head over this situation.
Both Team A and Team B have added players since the game was suspended. Team A adds 3 players to the scorebook and Team B adds 1 player. I'm thinking to myself:
"Ok, each team added players, so each team will get a Tech for adding names to the scorebook after the game started, resulting in a double tech, no free throws, and the ball at the point of interruption where the game was suspended."
I was a bit shocked when the R for the game (we had a different crew than the one from the original date) gave Team A 3 Techs -- 1 per each name added and Team B 1 Tech their 1 new name added. Team B then shot 6 free throws with Team A shooting 2 afterwards.
I happened to realize I had a rule book with me, but after I got home and the game was well over. If I'm understanding rule 3 correctly, It should have been One Tech per team.
What was the correct was to handle this?
