NCAA Exams

Guys:

I am getting back into basketball this season and am looking for old NCAA exams. We are using NCAA rules, which is new for me. Any idea where I could get any.

Thanks.

PWL:

The attacks add nothing to the conversation. So please STFU.

I need to make sure I am being very clear here. I never IGNORE a balk. If the pitcher blows through the stop, I call it - everytime. In the game I described, he hadn't balked until I called it. Now,...

Good question.

I don't know of any firm "protocol". First, let's think about how many calls you have booted and "left on the table." On those calls, if nobody is racing out to argue, then why...
