Of course, the number one consideration is always safety. But if the other team's manager is a first-class AH, and refuses to let his equipment be used by the other team, then what? I can't see where an umpire could force equipment sharing. I would be inclined to use 4-2-3 as a guide in determining if the game should be called or suspended.
Upon further review, the NFHS rules seem to put these kinds of situations into each state association's purview.
