I'll never forget the first time that I officiated on a 94 foot high school court. As I moved from the old trail to the new lead, while looking over my left shoulder (back then NFHS mechanics had the lead almost always on the right side of the court, known as the Cadillac position) at the action behind me, I found myself "settling" into my lead position several feet short of the end line on the playing court. It took me several times up and down to court to adjust.
