that is what is upsetting. why would a coach risk injury to either player when the game is over ( 20 to 6). I have officiated many other games with scores like that and the good coaches stop letting players steal or move on overthrows. They want the game over!!!
that is why it was upsetting to me, and why i wondered if other umpires get bummed out over this type of play calling.

You said
Boys JV game
from my experience most HS coaches are also teachers.
Hopefully you wrote up a report and sent it to
1. Your assignor
2. AD of the school in which this coach resides.
Hopefully if the AD has any kind of back-bone this coach might lose his job.
