Gutsy Call

Big West Conference Tournament semifinal game between Utah State and CS-Northridge in which Northridge led by one with 7 seconds left. Utah State misses a shot and Northridge rebounds. However the rebounder grabs the rebound and starts running with the basketball in celebration as time expires. Referee quickly calls traveling as the players celebrate. The officials go to the monitor and put .8 seconds on the clock. Utah State fails to score in the remaining time.

I thought it was a really gutsy call by that official as he could have easily let time run out. The replay shows he made the right call. Thought that referee deserved some recognition for making the right call in some tough circumstances.

I agree!!
