Signals the attempt, but not the make.

That was a horrible call. It was a PC.

That is a clear and absolute blocking foul. Play doesn't originate in the lower defensive box, thus the RA is in play. Defender's right heel is in the RA.

And even if it wasn't, Camron has this right...it's still a block w/o the RA in play...defender is still sliding laterally into the spot after the defender is airborne.

You have got to be kidding. The end line replay clearly shows the defender sliding laterally in on the airborne shooter.

I saw this game live on tv and was instantly impressed. She has got whatever "it" is.

Due to the thread title, I expected to see two difficult decisions in the video.
However, the first one is really nothing more than an out of bounds call--just a matter of looking for where the player's foot is--and the second is a routine unsporting T.

I would expect most competent HS officials to be able to get these plays correct, although there is some adapting that must be done to work with the RA.

I thought this was an issue of the RA, not anything else. I do not claim to know much about Women's rules in this area. And that is why the officials pointed to the floor.

Block, RA, perfect NCAA-W mechanic at spot. The T for taunting was easy as well. She is good. I worked with her at a camp as well.

The Lower Defensive Box is the only difference between the women's and men's rules in this area.
