No Trainer

From a basketball officiating standpoint there's not much to add, but I'm curious as to why there was no athletic trainer present. In MA (I believe) it's a requirement to have a trainer at the game. Usually teams don't travel with a trainer but the home team trainer will cover both teams and certainly would have been involved with a player who doesn't get back up after a hit.

Seems odd, there is a law about concussions and further participation in the state but no requirement that someone qualified be onsite to provide care?
