NorCal boys basketball: St. Joe's furious comeback beats Branson - Marin Independent Journal
Joe's (25-8) scored 23 points in the last three minutes to shock the Bulls (30-5),
"After Whitfield (12 points) made a pair of free throws to make it 40-39 Branson with 20.6 seconds on the clock, Gabe Avins tried to inbound the ball for the Bulls, but it was kicked by D'Angelo Hutton. Then Avins took two steps to his right before calling a timeout. The referees originally granted the timeout, but then huddled and gave St. Joe's the ball, ruling that Avins couldn't run after the reset. However, according to the California Interscholastic Federation rulebook, Avins should have been able to roam the baseline, even after a reset." |
Again, this assumes the throwin pass was not legally touched (tipped) prior to the kick. Without video, I have no idea if this was the case.
I feel like I'm channeling my inner Rut now.
