I wound up working a boys' JV game alone tonight. First-year AD got his officials mixed up and told the official I was supposed to be working with that he wasn't needed.
Visitors got out of the gate fast and cruised to a 25-point win (and shot at least 70% from the floor in the process). Wound up calling at least 25 fouls all-told--including five on the home team's star player. Neither coach made a peep.
Whoever posted those guidelines for working solo--thank you. I didn't follow them to the letter, but a few specific points made this experience a lot better than it could've been.
