Bonehead play of the season. (I think I am the only one who posts these, I have no pride) JV Girls game last nite. Check the ball, seems a little flat, but it bounced fine. I ask the coach if this was the game ball he looks at it and says that is the game ball. No big deal. We play the game, a TON of fouls, and about 1:45 later we finish. Varsity officials take the floor. They confer around the table with the game ball and ask the varsity coach if there is another one they can use this one is a little flat. He comes over, with the JV coach and they get another ball. They compare the two "game" balls and discover something interesting. The game ball we used, and the varsity almost used, was a BOYS sized basketball!! They did not have a "game" ball for the girls so for the varsity game they used a "practice" ball.
I can't WAIT for the next set of schedules to come out. I will probably be doing all "B" games located at least 45 min from town!! At least the Varsity guys did not pick it up either!
