bandzip Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Just got back from the game. The first half was the best officiating I've seen at any MAC game mens or womens all year. The second half was the worst officiating I have seen all year. Hope it isn't a sign of things to come this week. With about 10 minutes left in the second half while we were still up there was something like 15 fouls called on Akron and 6 on Toledo for the half. One ref simply refused to call any fouls on Toledo and several times there were plays right in front of her called by a ref on the other side of the court. On the other end she called at least two fouls on Akron when there was literally no contact. With a couple minutes left Ruper got clobbered while shooting and they didn't call a foul. She went down holding her knee and crying and I never saw her get up off the floor. She kind of crawled over towards the bench and sat there on the floor the rest of the game clutching her leg. Everyone was silent except one Akron fan who was absolutely laying into the refs over that one. I've never before said officiating cost us a game, but this time I can confidently say it did. The Zips definately deserved this win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to go, ladies. Take another step next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msopher Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 First, hats off to the Zips who gave the Rockets all they could handle. I saw both teams earlier this year at the JAR and I wasn't impressed with Akron at all. That has changed. I think both your post players are solid even if they committed some unnecessary fouls late in the second half...attribute that to youth. Your other starters, including #20, were quite impressive. I don't look forward to facing you guys next season because you could easily be a twenty win team in 2012. As for the officiating, I am one myself, but I was disappointed with the second half. I thought Toledo got away with some fouls and the consistency from all three refs changed. Granted, Akron did commit all those fouls but it was obvious that the officiating had a minor impact on the final score. That is unfortunate. Thank God for Naama Shafir, otherwise, Akron would be playing tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
