4th year and first boys JV game? You won't move up to fast doing that. This is my fourth year and every year the game I do the most of is boys JV. I called two this week alone. So now that you are at this level, do a good job of it first.
Second thing, like Rut mentioned, is get a mentor. If you can get this commissioner to mentor you that would be great. But I wouldn't get your neighbor to do it. He is not where you want to be.
Third, if it really is that hard to move up, I would consider a move. Different area's of the country work differently and some area's, like Rut's, you can be doing a full Varsity Schedule by the third year. One thing I would recommend is that you don't move up any faster then you have to. You call a high profile game before you're ready and you won't see that game for a very long time.
The real test on moving up is what you do during the summer. I've mentioned some of the summer ball I've done to assignors and they automatically say I'm ready for the next level. If you can call that you can call this.
