I just love the comments on the newpaper's page with the "officials were out to get HHS" What a load of ****. I'm sure that when Mike Lazo and crew were assigned this game they were excited to see a highly competitive HS game with one of the more touted HS players on the court. Besides HHS was a talented team without Mr. Mayo.
I saw Mayo in the OHSAA finals last year and he was the real deal. His running mate Bill Walker was crying the entire game. When Walker wasn't crying he was cherrypicking and not even playing defense. (My 14 yo son's observations)
Too bad Mr. Mayo actually had to play a game where there was some competition. I'm sure the number of fouls called were to avoid just such a situation combined with the potential trash talking involved.
Final line if you bump into an official after having a "T" called on you, you are asking for the ejection.
