Our mercy rule is running clock in the 4th quarter when a team has a 30 point lead. If the lead goes back under 30, we do not revert back to stopping the clock.
Had a varsity girls game early this year that was a bad mismatch. Score was 58-8 at halftime, and the good team hadn't played their starters during the second quarter. The team in the lead plays in a classification two levels LOWER than the team getting beat!
Came out after the break and both coaches were waiting for us. They asked if we could run the clock the entire second half. SURE!!! 17 minutes later we were in the dressing room! Luckily one of my partners was our assignor, who is also our area's state rep.
The final score was 79-11, but it could have been 100-0 if not for a gracious coach.
