Why both teams thought they could pass effectively is also beyond me.
Ashwaubenon on Friday....knickers are done for the year, I presume.

We're making the trek to Whitefish Bay HS (Dominican) on Friday. First time I've worked football in the Milwaukee area (I had a game moved and I was fortunate enough to get a replacement game pretty late in the assigning cycle). Being near the lake, I'm guessing it will be pretty cool. We didn't even take the knickers with us this weekend for our Friday and Saturday games. We won't take them this week, either.
It was about 57 at kickoff with a 25MPH wind Friday. The pants and long sleeves were absolutely perfect. I wasn't cool or warm and it's rare you get that perfect balance. We had a punt go for 3 yards out of bounds that night. Had I waited another second to chop it, it would've been 0 yards.
