I have been waiting for somone to bring this up. But since no has.... I will. In the Class A-AA semifinal on Thursday at CCS, Doug Sena (the center ref) called a PK with less then 10 minutes to go in the match. At the time, CCS was winning 1-0. Rita Spellings for CPA converted the PK to tie the game, and then 1:13 later Rita Spellings scored on a cross for the game-winning goal.
Was the PK the correct call??
Sena, a ref from Jackson, called a hold in the box. No one went down the flow of play did not really change. I did not see the foul and I do not think Sena was in position to make the call either. The call changed the momentum of the game. Sena makes calls like that all the time in West Tenn to ruin games, now East Tennessee got a taste of him.
I do not want to take anything away from CPA. They are a great team, that fought hard all the way to the end of the match. Spellings is a great athlete.
