Looking for clarification on a NCAA rule.  Noise makers are not allowed at NCAA tournament games.  One game I attended in person, a middle schooler before the game run by the stands ringing a cow bell and an NCAA official told the boy that he was not allowed noise maker at the game.  I have been watching the Amherst v Mary Washington game and I can hear a cow bell almost every time Amherst does something right in the fans eyes!  So is it a rule or not????

Not sure about NCAA tournament games, but there certainly isn't that rule in regular season games at least.  You can always hear the vuvuzela at Occidental games for example.

Wow incredible run by UMW that resulted in a transition for Amherst and a really nice cross and finish for the equalizer, Amherst seems to be starting to take over but UMW getting some transition opportunities.

If that's true, it isn't enforced much in regular season games at least.  You can always hear the vuvuzela at Occidental games for example.

If it is a rule that is not enforced, why have it?  I felt bad for the middle school boy who was just having fun.  what does it matter if the NCAA allowed them?

As much as Williams' Final 4s in 2012 and (particularly) 2013 were unexpected, this year would be another stratosphere. Heads exploding.

PK saved by St Thomas v Chicago.  Still leading 1-0

Kuiper

St. Thomas' keeper saves the tame PK to his left by Chicago!  Chicago earned the penalty based on a hand ball in the box on a corner.

CC United

St Thomas goal keeper has a fantastic save on a penalty. 10:30 left in first half. St Thomas up 1-0.

Mary Washington down to 10 men.  Aidan Shell with the red card.

SKUD

Typical Laurens ten Cate/Amherst. Wished all the refs had the nads to do what this ref did.

What game are you watching?

Are the live stats wrong?  They gave the red to MW in the 72d minute.  Amherst's Tens Cate's red evens things out in the 81st minute, although Anherst's keeper saves the PK attempt

LetteroftheLaw

PK for UMW with 4 mins left !!!

LetteroftheLaw

Saved!!!!! This game is insane, still tied

Hopkins Walk-On

Announcer keeps saying Amherst is a man down, so I don't think MW received a red card.

7-1-11 Williams is playing for a spot in the Final 4 tomorrow; the incredulity of the situation and football less synonymous with the golden era Ephs should not detract from the fact that they are in the Elite 8. What a time to be alive.

Noise makers are not illegal in NCAA games to my knowledge. Some schools do not allow them, but they are not banned by NCAA. I have personally blown vuvuzellas, rang cowbells, and beat drums for years (including at final fours) and will be continuing to do so today. There was a recent discussion about this same issue in a referee chat room I'm involved with,, and the consensus amount referees was that there is no prohibition.
