10 seconds back court violation?

[MD Longhorn]

Fair enough. I'm not saying that glancing at the clock is not possible. I'm saying that I can't imagine the need or desire to do so in lieu of just about anything else I might primarily or secondarily be responsible for.

Here's a ten-second call from the C, with yours truly starring as the man with the whistle. I even got fancy and superimposed a clock on the screen.

IMO, that was to close for "help" in HS, was this college? And does college use the clock, not the count?

Yes, NCAAW D3.

And yes, the clock is used which is why I ended up making the call while the T was watching the ball handler and defender.

And C (and as a last resort L) can specifically get this in NCAAW.

What made it even more fun was the shot-clocks were having issues. There were actually four in use. Two on top of the backboards and two on the wall to the left at each end. The ones on the backboards kept sticking (e.g., they'd show "25" then "22" but wouldn't appear to be running in between). One of the backups stuck as well, despite the fact it was hard-wired. My R gave us simple advice: If you see two different times on the shot-clocks at one end, go with the one that's lower.

I only watch D-I women's, so I was under the assumption the ten-second violation was completely gone from NCAA Women's. Is that just a D-I thing, or does D-II have that violation?

NCAA-W ADDED the 10 second violation this year.

I would have asked them to turn one set off, either the on the backboards or the one on the wall. It sucks that the sticking problem was occurring, but I think it got compounded by having two clocks on each end that could potentially have different times. I would rather have one set and deal with those problems than try to reconcile two sets on each end.

Apparently you are just a casual observer. Thanks for being a fan.

JetMet, looks to me like you blew at 20. Isn't the violation supposed to occur at 19, due to 30 not being a whole second?

No, think about it like this:

20.0-20.9999 (1 sec).....21.0-21.99999....all the way to 29.0-29.99999 (10 sec)
