Below is this week's segment – Girls Lacrosse New Stoppage Rule - Listen
We’re on the field today for a girls lacrosse game. The green team leads by two goals with 45 seconds remaining in the third quarter. Number 22 for green drives hard toward the goal but is whistled for a charge in the critical scoring area.
What is the correct procedure?
A. Let the clock run and allow the player to self-start.
B. Let the clock run and resume play with a whistle.
C. Stop the clock, signal the foul, and allow the player to self-start.
D. Stop the clock, signal the foul, and resume play with a whistle.If you said D — stop the clock, signal the foul, and resume play with a whistle — you are correct. New this year, the clock must stop on the official’s whistle and signal for any foul in the critical scoring area during the final minute of each quarter, unless there’s a 10-goal differential.
