Jurassic in three years I would have to say that in games total I have done near 600 games and about 35% at the high school varsity level.

So...... refTN- you're 19 years old; you've already refereed for 3 years - which means you started around the age of 16- and you've already done about .35x600=210 regular season high school varsity games. You truly are a wunderkind. 70 games/year is a fairly heavy varsity schedule- for sure.

In Tennessee, do you have to write and pass the NFHS test(s)- either part 1 or 2- to officiate high school leagues? If so, what marks did you get on those tests the last 3 years? If not, does Tennessee require officials to write any formal tests to qualify someone to officiate high school varsity basketball?
Don't most states require an official to be 18 and already a graduate to work high school games?

So it would seem he did those 210 games in one season.
He would have to have done that. Tennessee requires their high school certified officials to be at least 18 years of age and also be a high school graduate.
