Positioning

[Junker]

Thanks guys! I had never seen a lead go out on the floor like that unless charging in while calling a held ball. I was always told to stay on the baseline and get out wider to get a view of a play like this. I guess I questioned his position because of this and because in essence you ended up with both officials in a trail position. In similar situations I let my partner get the view from behind and I get wide or close in depending on where I feel I'm getting the best look. I'll have to think about getting out on the floor the next time I have a situation like this.
