T,

I agree that we work with the scorer's table during our jurisdiction, but like JR said, only during our jurisdiction.

Most high school games I've done, the scorer's table is manned by high school students from the home school that get emotionally tied up into the game because of friendships, etc. So anything that they would provide, I would have to take their words with a grain of salt.

Since you're in Illinois, if you ever get the opportunity to work at Providence (New Lenox), wait till you get a load of the old guy that works the table there. He uses an air horn to announce the subs (instead of the WORKING buzzer on the scoreboard), and the looks on the visiting players faces the first time he does it is priceless! I can imagine him trying to break up a fight!
