Did your assignor reply by explaining the "no overtime" policy?

Coach has every right to be mad at a rules misapplication...whether he would have gotten the ball back with the arrow or not.

Did ABC Coach protest the game?

i didn't say he shouldn't be mad

Why would lead official who just said 1n1 to the girls "come onto the court" after the miss? The coaches interpretation of the situation doesn't make sense.

It'd have to a quick whistle to come before anyone rebounds the miss. Thus, give the ball to ABC at POI.

There are just some bad officials out there. Level of play has nothing to do with that. We don't know the whole story but if we take it at face value the officials screwed up. Did it effect the outcome? Who knows, but most likely not.

What do timeouts have to do with any of this?

The coach of ABC still had 3 timeouts with only 9.4 seconds left on the clock. All we can do is guess, but I think SAJ means the coach should have used his timeouts earlier so as to preserve more time on the clock.

And that has nothing to do with the officials misapplying a rule.

Most time-out are called when the clock is stopped or when that team is in possession of the ball, don't see how that would preserve time on the clock.

It's not football where you have downs.
