Warning, All the below is what I heard through someone else, so this might not have happened as told.

12/22/05
Championship game of tournament in ARIZONA.
Collins Hill vs Christ Of King (Varsity Girls)

1 minute left of game

Collins Hill star was passed the ball ahead of her on a fastbreak. (She had 38 points and 4 fouls at this point) It was going out of bounds and she reached out and hit the ball with her fist to her teammate. The official stopped play and called a technical for hitting the ball with her fist.

Now my question is (if this is actually how it happened) does New York have a different state rule for hitting the ball with the fist or did the official deam her to be doing something else. Or maybe he called a violation and the player smarted off to her. Did anyone see this game and this play?
