Thanks Pageman

[PageMan]

I have corrected Loretto's FT attempts to 34 from 33 previously entered. Another interesting fact: Page was called for 20 2nd half fouls while Loretto was called for only 10. This fact reflects the number of FT attempts for Loretto. I know that some Page fans felt that Page was called for a lot of touch fouls while Loretto wasn't.

[iluvbball]

PageMan, thanks for all the great work you do! I wish all teams could post their stats like you do!

[PageMan]

Thanks, iluvbball, but I wish that the results for Page could be more positive as I hate having to praise the opposition for winning the games.

[tigerman]

20 fouls Pageman ??

Gosh it's hard to commit 20 fouls in a game, much less a half !!

What crew did you all have ?

Sounds like they were picky picky.

If so, what a shame.

33 free throw attempts is absurd.

[PageMan]

tigerman: I knew two of the officials quite well as they are out of Columbia, I believe, and they are father and son, but I won't name them. One of the interesting calls concerned tie-ups on rebounds. When we got a rebound and they reached in, a jump ball call, but when they got a rebound and we reached in, it was a foul. Also when we drove to the basket, contact was allowed - when they drove to the basket, the touch foul was called. I just wish the calls had been consistent on both ends of the court. I'm not blaming the officials for our loss as we just blew it in the 4th qtr.

[furycoach]

Pageman , Could you tell us what constitutes an assist for you. I have heard several criteria, but I generally think when a basket is made after a pass and the receiver takes no more than 2 dribbles the passer should be given the assist. Is that anywhere close to accurate?

Also, do you give an assist to the passer if the shooter is fouled in the act of shooting and goes to the line? If so does she have to make 1 or both free throws before the assist is given?

[PageMan]

furycoach: I give an assist if the pass leads to an immediate score and gives the scoring player an advantage. If the scoring player makes a move after receiving the pass to get free, then I don't give an assist.

 

In regards to assists for FT's, I used to score assists, but after reading the NCAA scoring rules about this situation, I no longer give assists for plays that lead to FT's.

[tigerman]

Pageman, what's your take on the district thus far.

You've seen everybody haven't you ?

[PageMan]

Well, tigerman, it's still early, but here are the district standings:

 

Marshall Co....1-0

Spring Hill......2-1

Lewis Co........1-1

Giles Co.........1-1

Loretto...........1-1

Page..............0-2

 

Although I seen all the teams for a least 2 games, I'm not sure there is a favorite yet. All the teams seem somewhat inconsistent - good games followed by bad games. The Night of Stars at Lewisburg was a poor showing by our district with only Spring Hill looking good. Next week's district games are: Loretto at Giles on Tuesday, Page at Marshall Co. and Lewis Co. at Spring Hill on Friday. I don't think we'll have a clear favorite until after the Jan. 5 games of Page at Lewis Co., Loretto at Marshall Co., and Giles Co. at Spring Hill.
