West Coast Conference: WCC Suspends 3 Officials

The West Coast Conference suspended officials Bruce Hicks, Alan Pierce and Thomas Wood for one game after they allowed improper substitutions at the end of Santa Clara’s 89-88 win against UTEP. Hicks, Pierce and Wood allowed the substitutions with 2.9 seconds remaining in overtime following an inadvertent whistle. According to NCAA rules, teams cannot make substitutions in that situation if there is less than a minute remaining in the second half or overtime. The officials will miss their first regularly scheduled WCC assignment Jan. 8.
