I remeber that rule. Never did understand it when I was in HS. All I know is they repealed it at some point between 1991 and 1994 because in 90-91, I was a HS Senior and it was still a rule. Come 93-94 it wasn't because at our state's AAU Final 4, a winning team was stalling and the losing team didn't come out on defense. The offensive team had the ball for like the first 3 minutes of the third quarter.
