Given that the visitors were behind something like 49-27 when this came up, and given the visitor's scorekeeper's (who was a HS kid at a religious school -- the game was between two schools that aren't even part of the IHSA)assertion that he told ("supplied") the home scorekeeper to add the name, I decided that the best thing to do was ignore the T. That doesn't mean that's what I'd do in a different circumstance -- thus my question as to what "supply" means.

Until they clarify this procedure, it is whatever you want that word to mean. There is no specific answer to that question in this specific situation. So if you feel the proper information was submitted, that is good enough for me. Now someone else might feel differently, but they should give an official reason why you would be wrong if you took the word of one of the parities. This is just a hole in the rule and that is why the NF changes language and clarifies what they mean with rules like this. I doubt this will change soon, but if it does that is the only time we can decide what the policy should be no matter what.
