In both tournaments we participated in there were tough decisions for Officials to make. Along with the field element being discussed from SF 1-3, our alliance had and autonomous high goal that clearly went through in QF 2-1 and bounced off something (a head) and came back into play. That really surprised me that it was ruled as not going through and the ball had to be cleared before a cycle could start. We got the short end of the ruling there and were on the other side in SF 1-3. The alliance of 967, 2175 & 4607 was excellent and their play when it was 2 on 3 was fantastic.

Does anyone know if FIRST reviews matches to help guide officials as the weeks go by? I was surprised that SF 1-3 was not replayed. That said, I watch pro football and there are similarly baffling calls each week where I believe officials interpret the rules incorrectly. Those folks are paid and are professional officials.
