Blue is losing, big time. (And by the way, it was all our fault -- the number one team in the state scored 10 before blue scored any, because the refs weren't calling it correctly. Just keep that straight, folks.) White scores, blue point guard walks it up the court and surveys the disarray. Blue coach yells, "Miss 5! Miss 5!" I'm looking around (I'm trail) trying to figure out what kind of a play is called "Miss 5". Skip pass? Blue players are clearly also confused, and continue to muddle around. Defender steps out to point guard who now has to act. She passes it to her left (away from me) to 23 who immediately jumps and passes way too high to player number -- you guessed it: 5. It was too pathetic to be really funny.

So the coach was being literal in his play calling.:D

Maybe it was a "Miss-take" by Miss point guard.
