which indicator would have priority to end the period...the red light behind backboard OR the buzzer (assumingly, they are mistakenly not synchronized)?

thanks

Tough question. The item that has first priority is the clock itself. I would think horn would be second, but I don't know if there's a rule.

NCAA 1-17-4 says the light is there "to indicate when the period-ending horn has sounded". It does not say the horn is there to indicate when the period-ending light is illuminated. Draw your own conclusions.

In high school,it's the buzzer,horn,etc.

NFHS Rule 5-6. "It ends when the signal <i>sounds</i> indicating time has expired...".

Thanks, exactly what i was looking for!

This is a good thing because the old guys wouldnt be able to see the red light anyway without their glasses and all!

JR -- Is this just a hypothetical question? Or has it actually happened to you?

I apologize,Juulie-but I just couldn't help it.:D

J.R. - 1
Rain - 0

For those keeping score at home.

I was looking the other way and have no idea what you're talking about.

No idea at all....

Anyways...who ya like in the game this afternoon?

had a funny argument presented in assocation mtg last nite...."light travels faster than sound" :)

As Keith Olbermann used to say on ESPN, "That's a 4-3 groundout if you're scoring at home. . . or even if you're not!" :)

JR -- I'm not reduced to battery power yet, in fact, my warranty isn't even expired.

Which is why so many coaches look quite bright...until you hear them ;)
