short season

Our state's Christian schools had their state tournament at one of the local schools, so our association officiated it. I had the boys third-place game on Saturday, which was a blast.

Tight game in the first quarter, but in the second quarter the visitors go up by 12. They extend it to 17 in the 3rd quarter before white starts to come back. With a minute to go in the game we're tied!

It's 61-61 when the visitor's big man takes a 3-point shot at the buzzer. I was lead and didn't see what happened; partner called a foul on the white defender, who walked under the airborne shooter.

One made free throw and we're done. Great fun, and a great way to end the season.

In the past I've been more than ready to be done with basketball, but I had a great season this year. A lot less yelling from coaches this year for some reason.

Your partner's name wasn't Padgett was it?
