I posted this sitch in another place and wonder what you think.
************************************************** ************************
Last night. H59,V58. Girl's Varsity, 5.8 Sec. 4th Qtr)
I (Trail) grant last time-out to Coach V.
Ball is at upper corner of FT lane.
As I finish reporting, Coach H runs up and asks "Where is the ball being thrown in?"
I look over my shoulder and see my parnter (Ref) standing at sideline with ball on his hip, and I pointed and stated "Right there."
45 seconds later I see the ball on the baseline and think "Whoa!". I beat feet down to Ref, and he tells me that 3rd partner told Coach V that it would be thrown in on the baseline.
Ref gives me the ball to hold and beckons the coaches to tell them of our confusion and that the ball will be administered on the baseline; he offers them an additional 30 seconds with their teams and both Coaches accept.
V inbounds, gets fouled and misses two free throws.
Final: H59,V58.
I think Ref did fine. Thoughts?
