Pinstripes
Following a prestigious local holiday tournament on Twitter this morning...
The reporter tweets that this particular school has pinstripes on their jerseys, and that they have a waiver for them from the IHSA. He also said that the officials assessed a technical foul anyway for the illegal uniforms. If they have a waiver, I thought we were supposed to leave the situation alone? |

Go to the IHSA web-site, officials center, login and read the latest (you should be soing this at least once per week).
No schools have a waiver anymore. The pinstripes are illegal. The officials are correct (assuming this was a Varsity tournament). |

The Story You are About to See is True . . .
Was the tourney held inside the Joliet State Penitentary?
Oh wait, the stripes would be somewhat thicker then. ![]()

Then either the officials or the broadcaster were wrong (or there was something really weird like a violation on one of the attempts)

Hate to talk about uniforms again but since you asked...
Uniform rules changes by the IHSA was made by changing 3 things that were common problems with uniforms. If uniforms did not meet the new criteria they were deemed illegal. Waivers are now not accepted by the IHSA Uniform Police. |

I was kind of involved in the situation with the pinstripes as the official that noticed it called me for advice for what to do. He contacted many parties and called me to report what he was told. Then I called the tournament director to let him know they might have a problem. I really do not understand why this is such a big deal, but those are the rules and I guess they must be followed as we have nothing else important to do. Peace

Heard of another situation involving pinstripes today. The FT shooter bounced the first one about halfway to the basket, and stepped over the line on the second. The other coach "didn't want to win that way." He ended up losing by 1 point.

Probably same tournament, same school.

EDIT: By not knowing what they're supposed to do, I don't mean that they don't know the rules. |

That was the game yesterday (hence the picture in the paper this morning), and yes. I heard that Hinsdale missed the free throw(s) on purpose as well.

Proviso West 51st Annual Holiday Tournament. Game 1. Morgan Park vs Hinsdale Central Varsity Basketball game
You can see the illegal uniforms. 5 minutes: Both free throws were given and both were intentionally missed. Like JRut says the state wants us to just give the T and have the coach take a seat. |
