That was probably 10 years ago in a CYO game. I would probably do the same in a HS game if the team delayed as much as that team did, but I've never come close to having to do that.

Chuck, I had the exact same thing in an AAU game. Three horns, two whistles and team B does not come out to play. The last thing I yelled was THE BALLS GOING IN PLAY. Two players looked up at me, but no one moved. They did not come out until after team A scored. The coach was upset. His explanation was that he did not hear the horn. I have not not had this in HS games. Butif it got to that point I would do the same thing.
