Did the refs make a good call in the semi-finals of the Cleveland Regional

[meaubry]

I commend the staff at the event for doing what I thought was thr right thing to do. I'm assuming that the string of events was correctly communicated and that the human player from the team DID NOT step on the mat. I think in all fairness - the match should have been stopped as soon as it was discovered that an error by a non-team member had occurred (preferrably before the end of the match and before an outcome was determined). This was a tough call either way - I would have expected the same courtesy if a team was clearly ON the mat, and their autonomuos program wasn't turned on. I know that didn't happen - but it just helps me clear up how I feel about what did happen. All in all, I would like to commend the teams that eventually lost for not making a bad situation even worse. And I hope evryone learned something about the game, and the importance of getting the referees attention RIGHT AWAY. Like I said, too bad it couldn't have been stopped before the match was over.
