Highlands Griffin Green takes a shot against Franklin. It may look like a jumble of arms, but at the moment of this photo it’s still a clean play. However, a Franklin player did catch his arm before Green released and a foul was called.
Pictured below is Highlands Ethan Tate who just snagged the rebound at the Franklin end of things, drove down the court supported by Green and Olvera who both clearly saw Tate was on a nonstop flight. Sure enough, Tate took it straight to the hole for 2 points.
