No big surprise there.
In the game last night, situation occurred on a long rebound off a 3 pt attempt by V1. V3 chases the rebound, followed by H3 maybe 2 steps behind her. V3 gets possession of the ball - H3 makes no attempt to avoid contact and crashes full tilt into V3, hooking an arm around her torso and taking her to the floor in the process. When I reported the intentional, coach H nearly lost it. He collected himself and asked "how can you call that intentional?" - my reply was "excessive contact". The dumbfounded look on his face told me he clearly didn't know the rule.......
