No, this is L's call. The drive was down the lane.

And, I know it's going to be obvious, but what is "ICC?"
You beat me to this. I disagreed with every point that L^3 just listed.

Upon repeated viewings, I have the defender in position before the offensive player goes airborne (both feet leave the floor), so the correct call is a charging foul.
Based upon the mechanics for NCAAW this would be the Lead's primary call. Unfortunately, the Lead made the wrong decision. I feel that this is a failure of the system. The is no way that the Lead can look through the body of the defender to see when the offensive play goes airborne. On the other hand, the C has a wonderful open-look at this action. Not surprisingly, the C signaled a charge. The NCAAW need to rethink the mechanic for this type of action.
