When the ball is in the lane, all three officials have some responsibility and angles that would allow them to make a call. This is not only "not reaching," it is a common practice. You do not need to look to a college game to see this call; it is common in three person mechanics in all kinds of games I have seen. And when I have worked with officials that are from different parts of the country, they call things as the trail in the lane. The lead and even center often have people in their way or do not have all the angles covered. Usually the people that say this is a reach have not updated their 3 person mechanics philosophies or do not work the system very often. I have never been told to not make a call as the lead if I had two players in my primary take the ball to the hoop.

Peace
