WHACK!! FLAGRANT TECHNICAL FOUL

MTD, Sr.
If I had it to do over again, I'd go with a flagrant tech. It caught me by surprise.

This wasn't ordinary 11 y/o boys b-ball, it was a Biddy Basketball Regional Tournament, and teams came from MA, NY, NJ, and PA to this. So they were very good players and the level of intensity was more like a game with much older players. Even so, I know I should've penalized with at least a T, and since it was also used while addressing a child instead of just an expression of anger to himself, I think flagrant was the way to go.

Thanks all.
