The state website show that he does softball, baseball and basketbal so he is not a newbie to officiating. I tried to talk to him after we got to the cars but he had to go. I tried to help him out twice telling him to move inside the diamond and he refused. I did what I could do with him during the game. What he really needed was a clinic. I did what jicecone suggested and try to call all I could as an one umpire game. The one thing I was worried about was a safe call by one of us and an out by the other especially at third base since he was 110' away and I told him he had all steals.

is he up to date on his IHSAness? (haha thats a new word)
ie. has he ever attended a clinic or meeting that the IHSA requires?
im going to say thats doubtful
