I'm not convinced the philosophy should be used in HS at all. Some refs have the awareness, but choose not to call a game this way.

Why, if you apply it consistently?

Simple. I don't think hs ball should be about the stars. For those players who are going to move on to higher levels, it doesn't do them much good to give them "star" treatment. It also doesn't do them any good to help them get more than 5 fouls in a game, regardless of whether they are stars or not. I think for me it's an instructional thing.
I agree with Rut, that we should make sure the last couple are obvious, but if the guy with four fouls comes in and hacks the offensive player, followed by a teammate doing the same thing; I'll be calling the first foul, because that's the rule.
Unless, of course, my assignor wants it done differently.
