I agree with this absolutely. Looking back at my post, I see that I didn't word it very well. The coach I talked to about this, said that some refs seem to take pity on the lesser team, and call it more loosely against them, and then call it more loosely against the stronger team -- apparently to keep it even or something. She didn't want this, but wanted to hold her players to a much higher standard, so they wouldn't become sloppy. I took her to mean I should call a foul on them if it would have been a foul at the state championship, even if I was letting this kind of contact go from the other team.
