I know this topic has come up several times this winter, but last night was the first time I have ever seen this little off-shoot of it!
GV game. Pass tipped away and the race is on. A1 dives for ball and tips it farther away. B2 does the same. A4 and B4 are now racing each other to the ball. A4 gets there first (barely) and is picking up the ball as B4 dives in front of her. No contact on the dive, but now A4 is losing her balance, so she steps over B4 (straddles her) with her right leg, starts her dribble and steps over with her left leg. Official then blows the whistle and calls aPC foul on A4. There was absolutely no contact from either player!
In his brief explanation to the coach, the official claimed that B4 had LGP and you can't "go over" (his exact words) a player who has LGP.
One of the weirdest (and dumbest) calls I have ever seen. And it was A4's fifth foul.
