PSYCHO!!!!!!

[Brian Watson]

I find it hard to believe that they didn't tell you before the game. Personally, I wouldnot even think to ask the question. You could have shortened half time, or taken any other number of steps to get the game in.

I would also report the behavior of the coach and AD to the state. You should have hit them both with T's for acting like children. If they ended up losing because of it, oh well, they should have let you know there was a limit.

I don't know how any other states are, but here in my state, they really take a hard line on how the fed rules are in relation to games. If there is no provision in the Fed book, then you cannot do it. As an official if you allow it to happen, then they hold you responsible.
