High School games in your State.

[crew]

i was lucky and was assigned varsity in the 2nd half of my first season. dont get me wrong, he assigned me with 2 very good officials to pick up the slack in situations i could not handle. location and shortage of officials, i think, has a lot to do with how fast i moved up in varsity ball. i have a friend that lives in philly and he started officiating highschool basketball 9 yrs ago and worked an nba preseason game before he worked his first highschool varsity. that goes to show that in that area it is not how good you are but how good of a buddy you are!
