This is one thing that I\'ve suspected about referee instructions. Â I think they\'re told not to give an advantage to one side, so they tend to balance out the called fouls, regardless of the ratio of committed fouls. Â So the team that fouls the most gets relatively fewer of the fouls called.
All game long, A&M, esp. Elonu but some Adams, was throwing her hip out and stepping into the player she was trying to screen. Â To be fair to the officials, the only time they called it was when the defender tripped, which resulted in foul #4 on Chiney at 5:07 left. Â (Perhaps an aspect of being too nice on the court is Stanford not running through the player that steps out to screen.)
VG: I apologize for screwing up which 3ptr it was that Mel left her player. Â It was the score at 10:28 in the 2nd. Â
