Had my worst game of the year last night. Girls JV went 92 minutes.

You don't really mean 92 actual game-time minutes, do you? That would mean 15 4-minute overtimes. If the total time to play the games was an hour and a half though, that ain't that bad for girls JV.

15 overtimes is understandable, but why would you play 4 minute OT's for JV?
|
....because the rule book tells me to?
Rule5-5-1 sez you play 4 x 8 minute quarters in high school.
Rule 5-5-2 sez you play 6 minute quarters for players below the ninth grade-which ain't JV.
Rule 5-7-3 sez each extra period is 4 minutes or half the time of a regulation quarter for non-varsity contests. Regulation quarters in JV are 8 minutes, by rule.
If your schools are playing different OT lengths than 4 minutes, they aren't following the rule book.

Sorry, I just assumed that since we do it this way, everybody else does also. Sometimes, when your state does something different than Fed, you adopt that as gospel. We do it like this:
V = 8 minute quarters with 4 minute OT's.
Sub V = 7 minute quarters with 3 minute OT's.
