I was getting dressed and packed for my own game yesterday, so I just happened to miss that. I saw Lappas asking for the review, but I had to leave the room and didn't see what the outcome was.

A fellow official (D1) talked to me about it after my game yesterday. His concern was that the review came after the correctable error statute of limitations had expired. Since this was a case of erroneously counting or cancelling a score, shouldn't it fall under the 2-10 constraints; even tho it's a case of going to the monitor?

Thoughts on that?

Also, what did you think about the no-call on the UMass backcourt violation on their last posession?
You mean the very last possession of OT? I don't remember even thinking that there might be a backcourt violation on that play. And I just saw it again this morning on ESPN (Top Play #9 ) and again didn't think anything looked bad. So I guess I would say the no-call seemed good to me.

BTW, my game yesterday was fantastic. Christ the King (NYC, #11 in the country) vs. Central Catholic (Lawrence, MA). 3 point game at the half. Christ the King opened it up to 13 in the second half, then had to hold on to win by 1. Whole lot of fun. 2-whistle! I was looking for the oxygen after the game!
