Foul During Free Throw (Fool the Official)

[JRutledge]

This is an area we just seem to go to sleep on. I am not surprised it was missed and I missed it until I read certain comments.

Peace

MultipleSports should be along shortly to comment b/c that was his hero, Al Battista, who made the call.

The Trail should have offered some help on this play as he appears to be looking in the direction of those 2 players.

I will comment on the play at a later date, but as to "Al Battista hero comment "......well maybe you are a little jealous on the 757 "

I only get bits and pieces of Al, you get the full smorgasbord.

Yes, the T could have helped out, but where was the L in this play. He definitely should have got this play before the C made his call.

That said, BadNews, is that really Al? When was this game played? Al and I are good friends and have known each other for 20 years. There is not better person with regard to the NFHS and NCAA Men's/Women's rules than Al. He can tell you what year a rule was changed and from what to what it was changed and can tell you the Rule, Section, and Article that was changed, all without climbing up into his attic like I have to do.

Yes Mark, most definitely is Al. I've never worked a game with him but I've been to a few camps where he was a speaker and/or observing.

I'm assuming this was in the last couple years as I'm pretty sure I know the Lead. It's a D2 PSAC game at Slippery Rock.

Agreed. I'm trying to increase my concentration here. As soon as you let your guard down and take a play, any play, for granted, that's when the "fit hits the shan."
