Lockdown

I'm not sure why you would lockdown for the last 30 seconds...to the best of my knowledge that was never the NCAAW mechanic. We do lock down in the last 5 seconds - but the L is free to go where they need to go to ref. The "lockdown" simply tells us that we are locked in to the current C having the clock for last second shot responsibilities. Not really that big a deal. Can't speak for NCAAM or NFHS...
