Scorekeeper behavior

Boys Quarterfinal last night-

I am the visiting scorekeeper for this game.

3-man crew (All games quarters and onward are 3-man in Southern California!)

Home scorekeeper is a HS Student who all game kept cheering/yelling for her team from the table! It was the usual fan stuff and lasted from first tip to final horn. At one point I try to gently nudge her into behaving like a table official but it really did not help. Two questions here-

A.Our playoff manual states that the official scorekeeper for ALL playoff games MUST be an Adult! Would you have asked Host AD to have her scorekeeper replaced for a playoff game by an adult? (Reason I ask-I handle Varsity books in basketball for visiting school-In Volleyball this fall I had a very good student scorekeeper who knew at the beginning she would be replaced by Me for any postseason home game!)

B.Where is the line for removing a scorekeeper for acting too much like a fan?
B1.How many table officials have you had to remove over the years?
