I could, but the thought never crossed my mind.

One of their evaluators works in my high school board, and YES, MACBOA advocates coming out for the 2nd half looking as sharp as you did when you started the game. This evaluator stresses this to many of the officials he observes at the JV and V high school level as well.

I always have an extra uniform (pants and shirt) to use in case blood gets on me. Luckily, I don't sweat much so I've never had to use a second shirt to clean up my appearance.
