Doing a high-profile BV semi a few years ago. Mid-3Q the game is obviously becoming something to write home about. Players from other gym coming over to watch, players for next semi all there to watch. Tonnes of parents.

Defender is in his vertical airspace and A1, also airborne, doesn't quite release the ball in time before crashing into B1. It's all in front of the A bench. I'm T and right on the play. Tweet. PC. With all the energy of this game, I got to use a little pizzazz with the call, which of course I used.

Of course Team A HC goes off the wall. As I administer the throw-in, I hear the AC tell the HC that verticality applies to being airborne as well. I felt the world get a little better at that moment. He's a good AC.
