No, not that TO.
A little while back, there was a discussion about timeouts in overtime. All agreeded that 2nd half carry over, but there was some debate a to weather they accumulate in the OT's. So,I decided to contact the NFHS for their ruling. Here it is:
Situation: regulation game ends 6-6. Team A has all 3 timeouts left, team B
has none. During the first OT period, team B uses a timeout, team A does
not. It ends still 6-6.
So, as they move on to the next OT period, does team A have 5 TO available(3 from regulation + 1 1st OT + 1 2nd OT) team B will have 1.
Correct.
All second half time outs do carry over. So Team A would have their 3 regulation game time-outs and 1 additional for each over-time period played.
