Good start to the season
If the rest of the season goes like my opener, I will regret not taking more games this year. For JV girls it was well played, well coached, exciting, and the crowd was even polite.
Home team trailed from the tip, only to take a lead with about 30 seconds to go. After trading turnovers, V1 steals a pass at mid court, drives for the winning basket with H1 step by step beside her, and pushes off with her forearm as she shoots the layup. Easy PC foul for me. Only 0.8 seconds on the clock after my whistle. I don't know if I sold it really well, or it was clear as day what happened, but there wasn't much grumbling from the crowd or coaches.
I'm not sure I want to have that kind of call to end every game, but to nail one like that in the opener has me fired up.
I hope it goes well for the rest of you!
