Drake, was this your state's high school tournament? If so, then I have to say that you got completely screwed. Every year, the state boards and IAABO tell us how important it is for our games to have good sportsmanship. In fact, wasn't bench decorum a POE this year for high schools? Yes, I just checked my notes -- it was!
So you went out and did your job the way we're told to do it and you got scratched b/c the losing coach complained. That's unbelievable.
Personally, I think you acted correctly in the situations you describe. Perhaps, tho, you need to discuss the issue with somebody in your association who would have more insight than I have. Although, to be honest, I can't think of what they'd tell you. "Yes, please ignore the POE's during the postseason so we don't slow down the games."
