B/G Varsity Doubleheader

Leaving to go call games. The four teams involved have a combined record of 13 wins and 73 losses. Should be interesting.

No one; he just refuses to stop wearing a belt.

I knew this would not be the highest quality, but I thought the games might at least be competitive, and therefore interesting. Think again. Visitors blew the home team out in both games. One unusual note. V girls pressed the whole first half and led by the almost incredible count of 37-7. In the second half, no pressure, both teams played their starters to the end, and they pretty much traded basket. Final margin was 33.

I had two lower-middle, to bottom tier VG teams last night and it was a train wreck. We talked about it at pre-game, but weren't quite prepared for what went on.

We were in the bonus with 1:34 remaining in the first quarter. Sigh. I guess they didn't adjust to our calls? Ya think?

Second half was more of the same. Only this time, we were in the bonus with 2:05 left in the third quarter (gotta be a record for me).

So many violations, jump balls, and fouls. Girls totally out of control. Blech.

We had a guy from our association at the table doing the clock and he said the V missed 24 FT's. They lost by 20.....

The VB officials laughed and joked about it, asked about our calls, positioning, asked questions, etc.

When I went out to watch a bit of their game........yuk. Terrible. I shoulda stuck around until half time!

My deal last night is bugging me. One of those which makes one say "If they were all like this, I wouldn't do this." Both games were over in the first quarter. As posted earlier, home girls trailed by 30 at the half. V boys coach was a nicer guy, I suppose. He pulled off his press with a minute left in the first quarter, leading 27-6. Yet the home fans were the nastiest I have seen in a long time. They *****ed about every call, every non-call, and everything in between.
