The play is off and running ahead by a few steps or completely out of your range to reel them in and stay ahead of the play as if it were a HC set. So do you...
A) Trail it and view from a vantage point that would be that of a C postion on 3-person crew
B) If it's within your range to catch them (I'm pretty quick), do you blast it to beat them down court and be at the same time or ahead of the play and risk possibly getting straight-lined...
With the bulk of the games I do, I can often out run the JRHS age and get back ...but the older kids are FAST! I'm finding that I'm not always in the best angle on this particular play sometimes (especially if they are breaking down my side of the court)...I am wanting to take up the position of the C as in "A" above to give me a better wide view...I am just wondering what the best angle of attack might be to keep me in good view of the play and hanging back seems to be giving me a better view?
Thoughts and I appreciate the input....

Nothing wrong w/ hanging back and getting a good angle..much better option than busting it and not getting a good look b/c of a) you are straightlined and/or b) even if you do beat it you are running so hard you can't keep your head still to get a clear look at the play...shouldn't be happening a ton, but I do it probably at least once/game...
