Please note that this experimental rule applies only to VARSITY contests and is NOT mandatory. However, if a conference votes to adopt the rule for its conference games, ALL conference schools must participate.

Yeah, I got that e-mail last night and just wondered when they made this decision. Seems like this is something that should have been included on the Girls' Rule Adaptation list. It should make some interesting situations I'm sure. I know that I will not remember which conferences adopt the policy so therefore I'll have to write it down. That's what I get for working multiple conferences. I have trouble remembering which teams are in which conferences
I love it when the other officials are talking about conference standings and they ask me if I know about such-and-such's record. I typically look at them and say, "What class are they in?" I'm not a big stats guy. It just doesn't interest me, I'm there to officiate the game not recite stats.
