Officials dismissed between games

[just another ref]

Earlier this week at a local jr. high, the following allegedly happened. (all third hand, wasn't there, didn't see it) Girls game tied at the end of regulation. Just before the buzzer, home inbounds and H1 takes it to the basket. V1 contests the shot and H1 is knocked to the floor without a whistle. Referee is instructing timer to put 3 minutes on the clock for overtime. Home coach, as one might imagine, is unhappy with the no call and voices his opinion. Ref calls a T. V1 goes to the line, makes one, and the Ref declares the game over. Home principal comes in and demands that the overtime should be played. Ref refuses. The crew is sent packing.

The principal (former player and coach) and the visitors' chief of police (former player, coach, and official) called the boys game.
