Kris, you saw the play and I didn't, so if you say she was straight up, then I believe you. But I think it's pretty funny that you consider being told "DO NOT FOUL BEHIND THE THREE POINT ARC" as proof that she wouldn't have fouled the shooter. Because we've never seen a kid foul after being told "No fouls", right?
Let's give her the benefit of believing her account.
I agree, and said as much in the underlined section.

That said,have you ever seen a shooting foul called after the final horn sounds before the shot goes up?
No. And I'm not even doubting that it happened in Kris's game. I'm only suggesting that we not conclude "she couldn't have fouled the shooter" based on the premise that "the coach told her not to foul the shooter". We've all seen the coach yell "NO FOUL" only to shake his head in disbelief 3 seconds later after his kid commits a foul.
