Here's what happened. I tossed the jump for the overtime. Jumper taps the ball behind me toward Gold team's frontcourt. Gold player catches the ball - I turn and see her catch it, looking down at her feet. She had jumped to catch the ball, came down with both feet clearly in her frontcourt. Then her momentum caused one of her feet to step into the backcourt. There was no question it was a violation. An unfortunate one, but still a violation. Because of the tourney rules, this 3rd OT was sudden death, meaning first team to score wins. It just so happened that the other team ended up getting fouled on their next possession and sunk a free throw to win it. Wasn't a very dramatic ending, but that's what happened. I had nothing to do with who won the game.
