Maybe I'm reading the post wrong, but a high school kid officiated a college game? Unless this is some kind of weird publicity stunt, does anybody know the name of this assignor who has just assigned their last game for Youngstown State?

yep. that would be incoming NCAA National Coordintaor of Men's Basketball Officials - John Adams (Hank Nichols is retiring at the conclusion of this season). John currently assigns the men's officials in the Horizon League

A high school officiated a game? Even the custodians? Did the lunch lady call any fouls?

Yes, the dreaded 'over the snack' call.

Fwiw, a "Jason Baker" has officiated 18 games in that conference this year, according to bbstate.com.

I'd say that it's highly unlikely that he's a high school student.

Did the coach yell, "That's a peach!"?

That must have been the game where the kid won it at the end by hitting a tray.

Maybe it was O.J. Mayo (double pun there).

OK, I'll stop for now. See - you guys will never ketchup to me after all.

Do you have an URL for this article. This just doesn't sound correct. A long time personal friend was the Horizon League evaluator at YSU but he died of a heart attack last summer so I do not know who took his place as evaluator at YSU. I will make some phone calls and send some emails to friends in the both the Trumbull Co. Bkb. Off. Assn. and the Mahoning Valley Bkb. Off. Assn. to see who the new evaluator is and try to get to the bottom of this.

Maybe he meant an intramural game?

secondregion probably meant Jon Deibler. It's an understandable mistake.
