The Lead is moving away from where the players are going, there is no way he can have a good look at this play.

Good points. The problem with the Trail (Hess) was his direct line of view of the crash was obscured by #4 blue. He may have had a partial view of the crash but it most likely was not an open look. The Center (Hull) moved up on the rotation of the Lead (Breeding); it would have been optimal if Hull stayed as the C when he recognized the offensive player's drive to the goal. The problem I have with the L making a call that high near the FT line is there is a secondary defender (#40 white) in the RA; #3 white is a primary defender and should be left to the C & T to officiate.
JRut, could you look to see if the crew put the shot clock back to 13 seconds when play resumed? In the case of a "blarge" without a try for goal, the POI is possession of the offensive team with no reset of the shotclock.
