Longest game I was a part of was a tournament last year and only indirectly as I waited for my ride. 4 games Friday leading to a final on Saturday. I got two of the games Friday with a partner and another pair got the second set. Finals was made up of my partner Friday and the lead in the other Friday games.
Without too much preamble the final was between the clearly two best athletic girls teams there (JV) who had apparently split their games earlier that year. Night before the host team (one of the two in the final) had gotten really chippy against a team they were beating easily.
Whistle is blowing from the jump ball, (illegal use foul on defender recieving jump tap) in the first 3 minutes there are 10 fouls called including a tech on the home coach.First quarter (10 minutes stopped time) took 45 minutes to play. By the end of the first half there were 55 fouls called. By the end of the game 74 fouls called. Game took far too close to 3 hours to get in just for an 82-81 win by the home team.
