some clarification from the New Orleans Times-Picayune website fourms:

Albany fouled Carmouche of McMain with 0.1 sec left in the game and McMain up by 1 point. Number 20 of McMain pulled his jersey over his head celebrating the victory and got the technical foul. So Carmouche of McMain still got to shoot two free throws up one, and he missed them both. Then Albany got to shoot the technical free throws and hit one of two thus sending the game into overtime. Now if Carmouche of McMain would have hit his free throws we wouldn't be talking bout this and Mcmain would have won.

I totally agree with you it was an obvious call. The kid from Mcmain was celebrating the win he thought they had, at that moment. You cant blame the McMain coach for that though, that was just a kid's emotions taking over. It was the right call, but like I said in the earlier post. If McMain's #14 hit his free throws with 0.1 secs left we are not even debating this.
