I gathered the crew after the whistle and asked them what they saw. We explained to the T what we saw and he knew he made a mistake.
We rectified the call by ruling " inadvertent whistle" and resumed play at the POI when the defender had the ball to keep possession. 
Our conference commissioner and supervisor were in the stands and supported our ruling. 
The entire crew ended up working the conference tournament a few weeks ago.  |
Why are you - as Lead - looking above the rim on a try?
