Video Request: NCAAW RA Block
Notre Dame @ NC State, 2/18/19, ESPN2, 0:48 remaining 2nd Quarter.
Block called inside the arc on a secondary defender who had rushed to help on a drive off an offensive rebound following a long 3PT FGA. I'm weak on NCAAW rules so figured this was worth a look/discussion. Announcer said something to the effect of "I'm not sure the RA matters because it was off a rebound." She seemed to feel this could have been a PCF. My thoughts: 1. Does the existence of a quick rebound and drive matter? I don't think so. There was a primary defender established immediately and she got beat and then a secondary defender got ILGP inside the arc. Seems like a textbook RA block to me. But... 2. Does the rebound and quick drive have anything to do with the call, as the announcer questions? 3. I don't know where the top corner of the LDB is, but is it possible the drive started inside the LDB and therefore the RA should not have been a factor? Lots to unpack on this play. |

top of LDB is at the 2nd lane space mark down from the free throw line and 3 feet out each side.
quick rebound and drive does not matter. the offensive player definitely secures the rebound outside of the LDB, so the RA is on. |

I do care...
...about NCAA-W rules, so here it is:
If a player begins her drive to the basket OUTSIDE the LDB, the RA is ON. If a player begins her drive to the basket INSIDE the LDB, the RA is OFF. Without seeing the video, I don't know where the rebound occurred, and if it was one continuous move once she began going towards the basket. A player could, in theory, begin outside the LDB, hesitate, and continue driving inside the LDB...in that case, the RA would not be in effect. |
