You have to forgive Billy. He's never been the same since that double overtime freshman girls thriller back in 1971 where he and his partner set a new record for the most jump balls in Land of Steady Habits history in a single game. It's a form of PTSD.

BTW, I searched through his state's online game report database. Other "Unusual occurrences/items of note" he wrote, "I have just used up all the jump balls that are in me. I am unable to ever toss a jump ball again. My partner will have to do it from now on."

Truly tragic.

That's why the IAABO manual allows the referee to designate the person who will toss. It doesn't have to be the referee, it could be the umpire. Is this also true in the NFHS manual?
