The IAABO Refresher Exam has at least one or two "wrong" answers on the answer sheet year. IAABO never started that this answer was wrong, and I didn't give it much thought until a coach, with a background in NCAA rules, questioned a five second call, involving a screen, during a scrimmage. I decided to persue this, through the Forum, and through my local IAABO board interpreter.

We have many officials, including our interpreter, who do NCAA games, on our local high school board. Those with an NCAA background were calling this play the IAABO way. Those of us that only do high school games called this play the NFHS way. The NFHS interpretation is the one our local IAABO interpreter wants all of us to now use.
