I didn't see a foul in the corner. The shooter went up and down without a hitch. It looked as though the defender ran towards the shooter, but the play did not rise to the level of a foul. I'd say something along the lines of "shooter landed on her own".

In my high school game, if I saw it, I would be unsure of intentional, might depend on what happened in the previous thirty-eight and a half minutes, and of course, we don't have access to a game monitors in high school for such situations. I had to view the video several times to decide that the contact was a split second after the technical foul whistle, and thus during a dead ball, a very split second. Of course the whistle may have trailed the act that caused as technical foul to be charged. |
Scoring Play In Progress ???
Quote:
This was not a classic number advantage fast break, more of a "slow break", but the Kentucky player that received the pass left of the lane had a wide open jump shot. Kentucky never seemed to "pull back" to set up their half court offense. Of course, with the score as it was, Kentucky would have just been happy to play "stall ball" to run down the shot clock, certainly not in a hurry to score unless it's a 100% sure thing (uncontested layup). NFHS 10.5.1 SITUATION F: A1 is driving toward the basket for an apparent goal when the official, while trailing the play advancing in the direction in which the ball is being advanced, is cursed by the head coach or bench personnel of Team B. How should the official handle this situation? RULING: The official shall withhold blowing the whistle until A1 has either made or missed the shot. The official shall then sound the whistle and assess the Team B head coach or bench personnel with a technical foul. If the official judges the act to be flagrant, the offender shall be ejected. If A’s coach or bench personnel was the offender, the whistle shall be sounded immediately when the unsporting act occurs. (10-4-1a) |

I myself have many times used the "point mechanic" while officiating at The American School For The Deaf. Didn't need it in my "masked" (hearing) middle school games over the past two years, with small middle school crowds, and my loud, projecting, baritone "teacher" voice, but some of my "masked" varsity friends (especially female officials) found the "point mechanic" useful in their often crowded and loud high school varsity games. https://tse1.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.2...=0&w=213&h=177 |
Train Wreck Collision ...
Quote:
Is this a screen (delaying or preventing an opponent from reaching a desired position), or is this guarding (placing the body in the path of an offensive opponent)? Does it matter? With both screening and guarding a moving opponent (without the ball), time and distance are factors to be considered. In either case, White did not give Blue time and distance. Blocking foul. Just looking at Blue, she had her head turned to her left (didn't see it coming) just before the collision, so in my opinion, no intentional foul here. A player who is screened outside her visual field may make contact and if running rapidly, the contact may be severe, especially with no time and distance given by the screener. Can one illegally "blow through" an already illegal screen (or illegal guarding)? |
