I retract my previous statement

PS When I was in MD we did have a shot clock in girls games.
Nevadaref,
After seeing the responses in this thread, and in your other thread, regarding the use of the shot clock in the other states of the Union, I apologize. I was under the mistaken ASSumption, that the majority of the states used the shot clock. I really should know better. I usually am good about not making assumptions, however, my habit of making sweeping generalizations sometimes gets me in trouble.

BTW, I knew that at least portions of Nevada do not use the shot clock, because I officiate in Northern California, and sometimes near the border, so occasionally I am working a game with a visiting team from Nevada that seems shocked that we use a shot clock.
