I also saw a couple of instances where the Lead official reached across the lane to call a foul on the other side of the basket. One was probably a good call (they didn't show the replay), but the other was a clean block from behind. Lead called a foul. If the Lead is going to reach across the lane to make those calls, why do we have a Center official? Lead should leave it alone, unless it's an "oh my God" foul.

Re: Chuck,
Our supervisor recently reminded us that we have some decent shot blockers in HS so we should take the time to let the play to develop. Let the shot block or foul occur then blow the whistle if necessary. Don’t always assume B1’s attempt to block a shot will be a foul.
