Sounds like it was an evenly matched game. My congrats as well. Truely a tale of two halves. Blackman came out strong and fast. Hand checkng by Overton was called the first half. Second half, nothing. Overton got a couple of jump calls by grabbing the girl, not the ball. First half evenly matched. Second half 8 on 5. There is no way Overton makes it by Hillsboro. Hillsboro by 15+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am old, I coached against Coach Rosser when he played at Overton. Oh no. Blackman had their chances. Just a few of the free throws that they hit all season long but missed today would have made the diference. Blackman did not handle the press the second half well either. Maybe I don't know the rules well but I really thought that you had to have a hand on the ball to get a jump ball called. When I grabbed a player by the waist, I usually had a foul called on me. To give them their due, maybe the officials thought that the Overton player was trying to help her up when the Blackman player was laying on the floor with her jersey streached up to the Overton players hand. You know, grab her shirt and just pull her up off the floor. If it's a foul the first half, why is it not the second half? I can take bad both ways. I overheard a set of fans from another school asking why they changed officials at half. Since they are from AA with no dog in the hunt, it wasn't just me that saw it that way. Even comments from the radio broadcasters. It doesn't make any difference now. The paper tomorrow will show Overton as the winner, but out of curiosity as a former coach, did you not notice any inconsistency? With regard to Overton, I would love to say that my beloved Blaze were knocked out by the eventual state champion. They did play well when the game was on the line. But after watching Hillsboro play, I just don't think it is going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way Overton makes it by Hillsboro. Hillsboro by 15+. If it was 8 against 5, then this is the FIRST TIME in the history of the State Tournament that ANY Mphs team (girls or boys) has ever been the beneficiary of the refs. It's usually the other way around....so blatant that one had to wonder about some sort of perennial collusion/conspiracy against Mphs, come State playoff time. If this did, in fact, happen.....then I say (with respect & apologies to Blackman's girls) IT'S ABOUT TIME that the refs scrreewed somebody OTHER than a Mphs team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
