The school isn't without blame here. Someone should have caught it that no one had called to verify. A few years ago here in OK we were riding back from a game and listening to the radio for scores. The announcers were talking about a large class game where the refs hadn't shown up. Of course they were having a field day with it blaming the refs for everything. This was a Friday night game so it sounded kind of goofy to me. How do refs just not show? At least without a phone call saying they'd been in an accident or something. Well what had happened was that the home team A.D. had not turned the game in to the local Officials association. He had accidentally left it off his list. Therefore they never assigned anyone to the game. And the A.D., or whoever should have, never realized that he had never heard from anyone and didn't make a call to find out who was assigned.
