It should be a pc foul.

Just doesn't look like he busted his hump to get there, does it?

No way that is anything but a CHARGE!!!!The defender did everything to gain LGP and stopped after getting LGP.

You mean charge, right?

I'm sure that is what he meant since the rest of his post is consistent with him ruling it a charge......and I agree with that.

1. No.
2. Some do. I hear that crap at least twice a season at the HS level in meetings or in post-game discussions about plays.
3. This should not be a double whistle. Drive starts from the C's PCA. Defender is in the C's PCA. The contact is in the C's PCA. (--And well outside the RA, which is irrelevant regarding who should have the primary whistle on it, anyway.) The L having a quick (read - at the same time as the C, creating a true double whistle, instead of a cadence whistle) is inappropriate here. C's call, all the way. (L only gets if C doesn't make the call for some reason - and then, with a cadence or almost-late whistle.) - I'm speaking in NCAA-W mechanics terms and philosophy here, but I would easily argue that what I've just typed completely applies to NFHS, too, for this play.

Hawk....thanks on #3. For all you NCAAM officials out there this is the C's call all the way on the NCAAW's side. Most supervisors I've spoken with at camps wouldn't want a double whistle here.

Um .... say what?

From the video angle, it appears the offensive player's head and shoulders get past the torso of the defender.

According to NFHS rules, that helps us determine the play was a block.

Textbook PC.

1. No.
2. I definitely don't.
