I'll give the L the benefit of the doubt. This is a difficult angle, it looks like the defender took the contact more on the left side rather than textbook torso to torso.

I wish the L had been a little more patient. I think it would have been fine for the L to give the C the first crack at it given that the L was ball watching and the drive started in the C's primary. You can see the L rotate then watch the ball for the entire play. Slower whistle would not have hurt on this play.

I've got a PC here. I don't see what the L saw, though. Maybe she was sliding, but she was in position the whole time.

I have a PC foul. Unless the angle does not show the defender sliding over while the player was going airborne, then I want to know what the defender did wrong?

Peace

No, I was talking about the L since the L made the call.

I was wondering because you wrote "she" and the C was female while the L was male.

There are dicussions here about staying in your PCA. This call (type) really turn my beard hair gray. There is no reason for the lead to have a darn whistle on this play. Makes no sense!!!

Bang-bang play - but she slid in at the last split-second, I thought.

If the lead is going to come in on this play, he's has got to have a lot better cadence with his whistle. He didn't even allow the C to make a decision on the call. And he very well may have gotten the call wrong...hard to determine the lateral movement with the angle in the clip.
