Not sure if D1 specifically needs it, but as an official, I see a lot valuable with that information. I know what the teams did, how many calls we made and who is scoring leader. Good information to know as you officiate as you know who will be the focus in the second half.
Heck, I many times look at box scores if for no other reason because it is not unusual to have a coach claim that something the box score can prove. Years ago I had a media person in the paper claim that we called a lot of fouls on one team. The fouls were even for the game and the team that lost we called fouls at the end of the game to extend the game. I do not work D1 but that is good to get accurate information for sure.
