We get some pretty good H.S. crowds around these parts...of course this is kind of a special night. SWX game (T.V.) and both teams are in the same town. (2 of 3...3A teams in Kennewick)

I was at a similar game this Saturday with a similar crowd. Of course, I wasn't working it, they had the big studs on that game

It seems as though people only come out for the games at the Dome

Kid was diving for a loose ball...undercut my partner. We were talking after the game. When was the last time one of us was on the floor in a game?

I can't remember...if ever.

I was with an "older official" doing a GV Fall Season league once and it was pretty obvious (to me anyhow) he couldn't keep up. During one game as the L there was a loose ball and he couldn't get out of the way. He went down in a heap - needed knee surgery.

Last time I saw him, he was still going.

Right before the Christmas break, I was working a game with Tref. I was the C in transition and Tref was the new T. There is some minor full court pressure, so I'm step sliding up the court, then I hear it "BAM" or it could have been a "POWWOW" or some such sound. My first thought is, "I hope we didn't just miss some serious contact"...I frantically look for the cause of the noise.

Our new L had taken a nose dive. He is a middle aged guy, roughly 35ish (is that really middle aged?), and there was nobody around him, he just fell on his own. Of course, the fans had a good laugh at his expense. That was the first time I had seen an official just fall on their own
