I would tend to agree with the committee about the shot clock in boys games. Washington State has a 35 second clock for boys and a 30 second for girls. It really was not a factor in any of the boys games I worked or watched this season as most of the boys teams play very up-tempo ball (whether they have the skill to or not). On the girls side, I like it. It can lead to some pretty lopsided scores, but in most cases that would happen even without the clock. It keeps girls teams from getting a 9 or 10 point lead and then stalling (see the Oregon State Championship game).
