Call it or not?

[Adam]

Middle school girls AAU. A situation came up that made me think about the violation for swinging the elbows.

A4 had a habit of grabbing the rebound (or a loose ball) with both hands and then extending her elbows while taking a good solid swing into nothing. Oddly enough, she was only doing this when no one was around. Partner and I discussed it and figured we'd call it if she did it in traffic. She did it later in traffic, and he called it (okay, I was peeking, and my whistle blew, too.)

Anyway, in hind sight, I'm thinking we probably should have jumped on it early while no one was around rather than wait for her to come close to busting someone else in the chops.

What say you?
