blocking and charging

[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

Dan_Ref, not this year. Usually we have about four to six students from Bowling Green State Univ. take our officiating class. Nobody took the class this year; the first time in ten years that we did not have a officiating. The major reason is there is no way that people want to put up with the horse manure that we officials have to put up with. In the one high school summer league that I officiate in, I am constantly trying to recruite the players (both male and female) to consider becoming basketball officials after they graduate from high school, but they all tell me the same thing, no way, to much horse manure to put up with. All I can say is: Out of the mouths of babes.
