Replay in State Tourney's?

[tjones1]

Just to add to it a little bit... does your state use PTS?

[Lcubed48]

Here in the Commonwealth of VA, it is allowed to be used at the state finals level. I don't know what the specifics are. PTS is also used, but there is one person at the table who operates as a backup. If the floor official is not used to the system, then they can keep their focus on the game.

Replay is used at state in Wisconsin.

Not in Texas! We don't need instant replay because, too my knowledge, no referee in the state has ever made a mistake, kicked a rule, or had poor judgement in the history of the sport. Especially in any of the games I have worked!

[Indianaref]

Yes in Indiana.

I thought replay was authorized at the state tournament?

[scrounge]

Yes in OH but solely for purpose of seeing if a buzzer-beater is a legal shot

[stripes]

Not used in Utah.

Actually, it is to determine if a last second shot will decide the game. I had a momentary lapse in memory there. But since I have never seen it used at the tournament (not that I've been to every game) I stand by my irrational belief that we don't need it.

I thought that was southern Cal where the officials were all perfect.

As for Oregon, no replay used.

Working my first state final next Friday. Looks like I need to read up on the details of the replay rules.

We do not use replay but we do use PTS.

I'll save you the trouble. It's pretty light reading at the NFHS level.

NFHS 2-2-1
The officials shall make decisions for infractions of the rules committed within or outside the boundary lines. The use of any replay or television monitoring equipment by the officials in making any decision relating to the game is prohibited.

NOTE: A state association may permit game or replay officials to use a replay monitor during state championship series contests to determine if a try for goal at the expiration of time in the fourth quarter or any overtime period (0:00 on the game clock) should be counted, and if so, determine if it is a two- or a three-point goal.

What is PTS?
