The two technical fouls on MD were not continuation-of-the play or over-aggressive physical play. They were mean-spirited, over-the-top frustration technicals — a hack to the head and a forearm to the back of a downed player. Brenda Frese did nothing to discourage this behavior.
The box score shows only one technical (Owusu).
The other foul that was apparently left at a personal foul was after the play was over. I thought it was a delay of game technical foul where a MD player interfered (to the head) with a Stanford player collecting the ball after the end of the play.
AH... Why it would have looked like a technical foul: Rule 4.9.1.f on Delay provides for a first-time warning (2nd results in a technical foul)
When I watched the replay, I see that Stanford was also warned for delay. At 5:44 in the 2Q, we made a basket. As the ball came down Owusu and Belibi had their hands up for it. The ball bounced up in the air. At the time, I thought Uwusu had done that, but I see now that the ref warned Stanford for Delay.

Right after that, at 5:31 2Q, Uwusu lowers her head and drives her shoulder (like a bull) right into Lexie. Lexie goes flying backward at least 15 feet. I simply can't understand how that wasn't called.
At 5:16 Uwusu gets called for her 2nd as she reaches around our person with the ball.
At 2:56 is when Uwusu drove into Lexie. As they fall, their legs get tangled up and both wind up on the floor. Uwusu slides into the feet of Jones, who then offers a hand up to Uwusu. It is ignored. Uwusu gets her feet under her, in a deep squatting position. Lexie is in a sitting position with Cam giving her a hand. Uwusu does a two-handed shove of Lexie in her back. Two MD players get to her quickly and walk her to the bench.

More FloHoops issues: On Saturday evening, they posted a 7:10:42 replay of Saturday's game. However, nothing plays after very late in Stanford's 3rd quarter. There were earlier glitches where I had to skip forward over stuck spots. But I tried several a number of spots after 1:19 into the video but get nothing. I had thought the issues in the replay videos of the earlier games were aberrations, but it appears to be too frequent.
