Observations

I work in a pretty big Assoc. We have 120 HS and about 300 refs. I always stay and watch the V game after my Frosh/JV doubleheader.

Two nights ago, middle of the pack boys game. The V refs consist of a very experienced,in shape top dog and a young, slick,good looking up and coming stud. Did a great job in a tight contest. They looked great.

Last night middle of the pack GV game. Both teams battling for a playoff spot. Both V refs were at least 40 lbs overweight. One when trail barely took 2 steps past the division line. Neither moved very well. Appearance wise they looked just horrible.

All 4 teams play summer ball.All 4 teams ,I assume practice the hour / hour and a half a day. The girls seemed to want to win as bad as the boys teams. They all put in the same time and effort.

This is a pattern I see all season long. Would the world as we know it end if the girls , once in a while, got thrown a bone and had refs that weren't candidates for stomach stapling surgery ?
