Not sure I have seen anything like this.
Watch this girl just take over in the Iowa HS championship

What a colossal waste of money, women's basketball, that the boys football team could use to buy more equipment and players. Those fans don't care about women's basketball, that's just ridiculous**
Seems like you’d call a time out after the first one and set up a play.
But I’m not a coach, nor do I play one on TV.

Smid is a damn solid multisport athlete who will have the opportunity to play d2 in basketball or volleyball.
This sequence was wild- #12 for Norwalk inbounding it like that twice has to be devastating.

Hard to tell from this angle but looked like she was allowed to rough her up pretty good on both inbounds.
All 3 inbounds passes were targetting the same player and all 3 intercepted by the same girl w/ the same result of a 2 point goal. That losing team will have nightmares for years about that..................
Is Lebby moonlighting as a girls HS basketball coach?
fwiw, that game wasnt the championship game. It was to determine which ream will play tomorrow for the 4a state title.
DCG, the team that came back to win that game, will have to come down off that high and play more tomorrow.

It's an incredible self-own that you use this as an example. Women's college basketball is MUCH more popular than college baseball. They aren't even in the same league. But nice try I guess.
It’s incredible that you can’t recognize sarcasm
That reminds me of the men’s NCAA tournament game several years ago between Texas A&M and Northern Iowa. UNI was up by 12 with 40 seconds to go, and A&M stole like four inbounds passes and tied the game up and then won in overtime.
It's "incredible" that my comment has gotten 11 likes/laughs, and yet, you've gotten nothing but condemnation for yours. "But, nice try I guess"............................
It's why the use of *** are pointless - people read and believe what they want to.
Facts and whatever this *** is don't 17n matter!
Like trash talk. Cool.
I guess I just misunderstood sarcasm. I thought when you said something sarcastically, you meant the opposite.
Like if I said, "The Peeper is a clever poster who frequently makes me laugh and adds to the board in a meaningful way.***" That would be sarcasm. Because I mean the opposite.
But maybe I should get over to every dictionary and encourage them to change the definition. I'll be sure and get them to write it in crayon for you.
I think if you can figure out what the opposite is to his original statement you may find the error in your thinking. No, I'm not being sarcastic.
He sarcastically said people don’t care about women’s sports.
He was using the crowd and energy in the video to point out people do care.
1) WTF was #2 of the purple team doing on defense in the first part of the clip? She had her back to the inbounder, yet she failed to defend the only girl cutting to the basket. She just stood there and did absolutely nothing. That is some poor defense. And the intensity that she's playing at is practically zero. There's no excuse for that. Your effort level is 100% within your control.
2) Those two attempts by the purple team to inbound the ball were . . . unwise. There was no strategy executed in either of those attempts.
3) Nice plays by #12 of the white team (obviously).

Interesting follow-up to this game, and something that many here would say is a typical MSU shafting...
The State's Girls Athletics Union(there is a separate union for Boys) released an apology because the refs made a significant error near the end of the game.
- The Norwalk coach(purple team) called a timeout and the refs said they were out of timeouts, so DCG got freethrows.
- Norwalk actually had a timeout left.
- DCG got extra freethrows and the ball due to the tech.
- Norwalk was down 5 at the end when they should have been down only 3(based on made free throws).
The official statement claimed they error did not take away an opportunity within the contest.
Actual reality shows the situation at the end of the game would have been totally different. A team down 3 with the last shot is very different from a team down 5 with the last shot...obviously.
"While these errors did not determine the outcome of the game, we recognize that they did take away an opportunity within the contest," the letter reads. "We understand how important every moment is in a state tournament environment, and we regret that this situation occurred."
