I agree with that totally. Yesterday in UNO and USM game in Baton Rouge regional had disputed call and U3 called foul but PU thought it hit pole etc.,

Ended up calling it fair. I don't know what is going on with U3 that they can't seem to get the angle to make the calls. I know its tough, but I"m thinking they are surprised by the hit and so many calls are easy that they just aren't really focused until its too late and then they haven't gotten into position to make the call.

Thanks
David
