Girls' JV. Dribbler has a clear path to an easy lay-up. Defender is right behind dribbler. As the dribbler goes up for the shot, defender reaches over the top to try to block the shot (not a real high level game!). She brings the arm down hard, whacking the shooter hard on the head. The angle was just wrong and the shooter's head snapped back, and she went down like a ton of bricks, and whacked her head on the floor as she fell. It took half an hour for the ambulance to get there, and she went out on a backboard. It was awful.
Amazingly, in the long run she was okay. Whiplash and a concussion, but nothing really serious.
We didn't call it intentional or flagrant. It was just a really stupid pointless foul. Oh, and the substitute shot the FT's.
