NFHS game:
Visitor is ahead by 2 with 3.2 seconds remaining. They are shooting two FTs. The home team has one time-out remaining. The home coach informs the Trail (3 man crew) that he is going ask for a time-out when his team gets the ball across half-court. The official tells him, "Okay, coach, I'll look for your request."

Visitor misses BOTH FTs. Home grabs the rebound and throws an outlet pass to a guard near the FT line extended. She proceeds to advance the ball against defensive pressure. She crosses the division line with 0.6 seconds on the clock and the coach immediately asks for the time-out. Since the official was looking for the request, he blows the whistle right away.
Just after the whistle, the player ends her dribble and shoots. While the ball is in the air, the horn sounds!
The ball goes in the basket.


Should tomorrow's headline read, "Coach costs his team the game"?
