Comments on the 2001-02 rules revisions
"X" locates scorer (1-17): Rather than a recommendation, the rule now requires an "X" on the floor in front of the scorer. For 2001-02, when an "X" might not be possible to be painted, tape may be used. Home or game management is to ensure the "X" exists prior to competition.

I've been doing scoreboard/timer & shot clock since 2005, & I don't remember even an "X" being marked last year during 4A Regionals. When I was Boys' Basketball Manager from 1997-1999, I never saw any school having the marking.
