NCAA-W Experimental Mechanics

[rockyroad]

Just got the bulletin for the experimental mechanics to be used in all NCAA -W summer camps...two changes (and these should put a crimp in those of you who say NCAA-W is trying to be too much like the NBA):

1)Trail's primary coverage area will include all 3 point shots from their side of the court. T's area now goes to the baseline outside the 3 pt. line...L's area is now from inside the 3 pt. line to middle of the key. (I think that's pretty much the same as NCAA-M)

2)Last second shot responsibility will be the official OPPOSITE the table, whether that is T or C...(that's the same as NFHS and NCAA-M). There will be no "lock-down" point on the game clock...

Usually these rules are used experimentally for one summer, evaluated, and then implemented or tossed the following year...so 2006 summer experiments would be implemented in 2007 - usually. I've heard rumors that these two will be implemented this winter.
