Least Amount of Fouls?

[Freddy]

Girls' JV tonight. Only two whistles the entire first quarter, after the tweet prior to the jump ball, was for two OOB calls. NO, that is NONE, that is ZERO, I mean ZILCH -- 0 fouls the entire first half.
Wow, the second half was a real hackfest, as we finished up the game calling only five fouls total.
And they pay us for this!

That is one for the record books for sure. My best case scenario on the varsity level was a 4 overtime game where the team that wound up losing didn't commit their 7th foul till late in the 3rd overtime. Don't remember about the winning team.

Had a 7G game this season in which the first half had 8 fouls total, and then the first foul of the 3rd quarter came with under 1 minute remaining. You have to love 7G zone defense by both teams. However, the following 8G game had a total of 42 fouls for the game, 26 in the first half.

I am going to guess that the 5-2 game between BFA-Fairfax and Milton HS in VT 3 or 4 seasons ago, did not have many called.

ONE foul in the 1st half of a GV Tournament game this year. Score was tied at the half. There was literally nothing to call. The girls from both teams absolutely would not even touch one another. 7-8 fouls in the second half, so 8-9 total for the game. Had a group of other officials watching the game, and they only felt like we could have made 1-2 additional calls total. It was really interesting. Never had that happen before.

Of course, last night was entirely different! 1st half, double bonus for both teams about 2 minutes into the 2nd Q, and double bonus for one team with 3 minutes left in the 3rd Period, with team #2 getting into the double bonus with 6:50 left in the game. 55+ fouls for the game. Literally, the worst game of the season. (BV)

Well, they got even with me tonight. 7G, an uncontrolled hackfest that took about 1-1/2 hours. 8G, a controlled hackfest in which I ejected the official scorekeeper during the game and the head coach immediately after the game.
Glad I'm getting exposure to both worlds, but one day after the other???
GV tomorrow night, BV the night after. Neither can possibly be as good as yesterday's game, nor as bad as tonight's games.
