First time to start the game with a technical

I'm curious. Did charging the opponent with a technical foul get the underclassmen to the other game on time?

We don't know why the home coach was late. Perhaps a valid reason, perhaps not.

However, scheduling a second game for players to play in on the same night certainly doesn't seem very prudent. I wonder who the coach would blame if this game had gone into overtime?

Seems to me the technical was assessed moreso to please the visiting coach than anything else. Personally, I would not have called it. I think this penalty is more about fair play and assumes the coach is actually in the building but does not complete his duties. I've seen a state Elite Eight game delayed 45 minutes because one team brought the wrong color uniforms. No one even suggested a technical foul.

I've had two games in seven years start with free throws-almost had number three yesterday.

A.Varsity Boys-kid dunking during warmups

B.JV Girls Tourney-uniform issue

Near miss was last night-JV Girls-visitors have two #12's in away uniforms.coach offers to turn one of them into #2 but coach just decides not to play the player so he can have his box.

The coach doesn't lose his box for an administrative T.

And, it's a T to have identical numbers in the book even if one (or both) of them doesn't play.

Thanks Bob-
I had a suspicion that was the case He passed on the T for duplicate numbers when the coach said he wouldn't play one of them.

I'm not sure that's "wrong" at a JV game.

I agree with you on all points. Especially the plumber part.
