What's your call?

That's a block, all day, every day. And it most definitely is not a travel at any point.

I agree. She never managed to establish LGP. And no way is that a travel.

The travel call is definitely wrong.
Block/Charge is close, so I watched it a couple of times and stoppped the video at the crucial moments (when the offensive player lands, when the defender obtains ILGP, and the moment of contact). The defender actually does obtain legal position prior to the contact. If anyone wishes to post still pics, all will see that this is true. The offensive player then proceeds to go through the defender's space while attempting to dribble. Correct call is a PC.

Are you ruling the play to be a block, because you felt the defender wasn't fully in the path of the ballhandler? It looks to me that she did have both feet down, facing the opponent, before the contact.

Regarding the travel call - I've heard and seen several officials use the travel as a sort of "nuetral" call on such close calls . . . something I find quite distasteful.

Block...defender was moving towards the offensive player all the way to contact making the question about LGP a moot point.

And not even close to a travel.

Exactly. If you look at the series of photos, she's moved forward.
