[Kansas Ref]

Attended a ref clinic and heard a few surprising things:

1) One of the clinicians who specializes in "Two-Man" reffing told us/ advised us per the following: "...when you're in the L, don't be shy in closing down much closer when the ball goes into the low block post area opposite of the side that pertains to your primary coverage area." She suggested to us that although our PCA does not include the opposite side of the lane, we should close down closer in this area to get a better view of the matchup. Albeit, this is not the norm, she indicated that in today's NFHS level games, the players are so much better and offenses are so much more complex that it is easier of your partner in the T get 'stacked' and miss contact that occurs in post play.

2) A panel of clinician also told us that a "45 sec shot clock" is coming to NFHS games sooner rather than later.
