I was at that game last night and I have to agree with you. My friends and
I were surprised that the goal was allowed. I wasn't watching close enough
to determine whether MTU's player made an attempt to get up or not, but in
any case he was still in the crease and the goal shouldn't have stood. I
believe that's the rule, anyway.
