A 2nd year official is paired with a veteran. In a tight game situation, the new official is the lead official on the baseline and the veteran is out on top. There is a quick change of posession and the new offical beats the veteran across mid court and there is nobody to cover the area under the basket for the lay-in. How would you handle this situation if you were the young official?

You mean the rookie went from old lead to new lead, leaving the vet at midcourt to go from old trail to new trail?
If I were the young official I would tell that old fart to move his butt down court faster next time!
If I were the old fa...err...the veteran I would tell the rookie to relax, I got it covered, wisdom & grace beats inexperience & youthful exhuberance every time!
(Right JR?)
Anyways...if I read this right the rookie made a typical rookie mistake. Hopefully it won't happen again.
