Going back to the play, it is clear to me this is a flagrant foul. I'm sure the referee on the floor would have caught this as he was right there, but in the video I had to watch this a few times.

Look at the defensive player going into the shooter. It doesn't look like he went up to block the ball, albeit the hand going up to look like he's making a legit attempt to block. It looks like he used excessive force to go into the torso of the player intentionally to injury or take out the player, and then watch where his arm went. It went down towards the head and shoulder, obviously looking like he wanted to hit the shooter with his arm. I'm bringing this video up with our chapter's rule's interpreter and ask him what he thinks.

Yes, I know there are no replays in high school sports, and that you have to call it as you see it. First time watching this video before making it a thread on here, I immediately thought "wow, that was pretty flagrant" and if i were the ref, I would have ejected that player.

My theory is that something must have happened on the other end of the court before it came to this part, because of the yelling coach, the almost immediate Technical given to that coach and then this shooting foul occurring. But then again, we are only seeing a few seconds of that whole game so I can't say for sure that this is what happened up to this point.
