Based on the WGN broadcast, yes it would be - I believe they said it was the first time a Big Ten game had a female ref.
I may have imagined this, but I recall a moment in the game where she made a call or was discussing something with Nance and as he was walking away, it sure looked like he went to do the little conciliatory butt slap that guys give each other in sports. It then looked like he caught himself as he was about to do it and stopped. Pete was being totally respectful, so it was harmless, but a little humorous.
On the BTN+ broadcast they specifically said first for a Big Ten men's basketball game. So I would suspect not first time at Welsh-Ryan, to the original poster's Q, but it must be first for a men's bball game at NU.
I had no complaints about the reffing last night, so I think well done by her and the rest of the crew.
The original poster’s Q was about a men’s game (specifically). But based on a close listening to the WGN radio broadcast, I saw no problems with the officiating either.
Lol. I said I listened on the radio and saw no problems with the officiating - and the margin is what made my comment ridiculous?
ha.... i missed that... though any fan could still find a reason to complain about the officiating even over radio!
We did in football this year. At wrigley. That might be what you were thinking of.
