You have more experience then me, so I won't pretend to know it all.

1. Surprised he under-officiated. Most varsity newbies tend to over-officiate rather than the opposite. But I guess everyone responds to stress differently.

2. Probably would have started reaching sooner than the 3rd quarter. Sometimes you just have to do this when you're partner is clearly out of his/her league. More whistles than less is probably the best of a bad situation here. You can do a lot of good through dead ball officiating...but only when the ball is dead.

3. Don't call him that night, but the next time you have a beer with your assignor, I suppose it wouldn't hurt if the subject of your mystery partner just happened to come up.
