10 second count girls high school?

[rockyroad]

Washington State has a 30 sec. shot clock for Girls, and 35 sec. for Boys. We have no 10 sec. count for Girls, but do have 10 sec. count for Boys.

Why? No idea...don't really care about the why.

When did Oregon start using a shot clock?

In Massachusetts both boys and girls have a 30 second shot clock. No 10 violation for girls but there is for boys. No 5 second count in backcourt for either.

It's possible that I may have mixed up Oregon and Washington, Rock.

I believe what I read was that Maryland and Oregon had the shot clock for girls only. Was that ever the situation in Washington?

Yes...we have had the shot clock for Girls fior quite some time, and the Boys was just added last season.

There it is. I got my Pacific Northwest states mixed up. Thanks for the heads up.

For those of you dealing with a shot clock in high school, how do you guys like it? Some here in Maine want it, but I'm not sure it will get the results they desire. Besides, I personally fear there will be more mistakes to fix (resetting, not resetting) to make it worthwhile, especially in sub-varsity games.

In the games I've done where I've been shot clock, the shot clock resets have been few & far between (once or twice a season).

In the JV/C games, where I'm timer, there have been a few times I've done both shot clock & timer with no resets needed,

I have been training a few people on shot clock as well. Also when my wife is on shot clock, the resets are few & far between as well.

My experience has been that some shot clock operators reset the clock when they shouldn't, such as when there's a held ball and Team A has the arrow.

Sometimes they don't reset it quickly enough when there's a change of possession, they don't reset it when the ball hits the rim or they even reset when the ball goes OOB.

The errors happen a lot more often than once or twice a season.

When I do shot clock, I am always watching the ball very closely & in case on AP/OOB I pay close attention to the floor officials as to who will get the ball.

The once/twice is on average, for having to do resets due to errors.

Wow.

If there was a smilie or something at the end of that post, I might think it was funny. As it is, it's just offensive and stupid.

GO shine your Birkenstocks and eat your bowl of granola. In the words of the great Sergeant Hulka "Lighten Up Francis!"

Fixed it for ya, Rock-O. Happy now?

Your ex Wimmens supervisor told me you were quite touchy like this, btw. A fatal personality flaw, in her opinion.

Hahahahahahaha!!

I would pay good money to watch you have a sit down with her! We could put it on PPV and make a fortune. Beat the heck out of any of the other "reality" tv that's out there!
