Tough one Cam...

My first reaction was why in the heck was he, as lead, watching the trap at the division line....and who was watching the other seven players? Yeah, it happens occasionally at lower levels with newer officials, but it's definitely not something I'd expect to see at a BV game.

You were 100% right and your partner blew it big time IMHO. He must have either missed the rules meeting...or slept through it. I know the commissioner covered it, as it was one of this year's rules revisions(4-15-4d, 9-5-2). The ball doesn't even have to be intentionally batted by the oponent - only requirement is that control was lost by ball contacting the opponent......and there's nothing in there about it hitting the floor either.

I'm assuming the coach didn't know the rule as well.

Coach didn't have to know the rule, because "with B's fans screaming", he and Camron's partner knew all they had to know.

Hopefully you don't have to do another game with this guy. If you do, be the R, the whole pregame discuss only Rule 4-15, and PCA!
