The AD emailed this to us the following morning - congratulating us on keeping the game in control. Out of all the calls - the only comment/question from either coach came on a jump ball. He said my whistle was a little quick - that the players had to both grasp the ball for 2-3 seconds before that call could be made. I smiled and said I believed it was simultaneous possession and we were going with my whistle. He laughed and admitted that even if I was wrong it was kind a lame complaint in that game.

Anyone else with L O N G games this year?
Glad I didn't have the Varsity game after this one.
