Boys JV game - 1st of season for both teams.  Schools are archrivals and mortal enemies.  Partner and I are filling in for another pair because we had our varsity game rescheduled.   We knew we were going to have to be at our best.  
First foul called with only 3 seconds off the clock.   We called - believe it or not - a new record at least for us - a total of 89 fouls that night. 

    The AD emailed this to us the following morning - congratulating us on keeping the game in control.    Out of all the calls - the only comment/question from either coach came on a jump ball.  He said my whistle was a little quick - that the players had to both grasp the ball for 2-3 seconds before that call could be made.   I smiled and said I believed it was simultaneous possession and we were going with my whistle.  He laughed and admitted that even if I was wrong it was kind a lame complaint in that game.  
Anyone else with L   O    N  G   games this year?
