In this most recent game they were holding Roosevelt to single digits until they allowed 2 lay-ups in the waining minutes of the 4th quarter.
I also worked their JV game. I believe the final score was 53-2.

I had a blowout earlier this week as well. Not quite as bad as yours. Mine was like 67 - 13, girls varsity game.

Good news is we finished in 1 hour and 2 minutes.

Is that a record?

8th grade boys a week ago, 46-16 in 53 minutes. Took me 45 minutes to get home.

That's pretty good, is mine a record for varsity?

Had a 74-8 Freshman B boy's game, and a 49-1 Frosh B Girl's game this season.

I worked an 88-12 boys game, a 39-7 girls game, and a 71-5 girls game -- all in the span of about 26 days. The last two games were 6 days apart.

I'd love a close game for once.

Take mine, Rich. I've had two overtime games already this week.

Gladly. Nothing wrong with OT in my book.

Sadly, I hear guys that like these games. Easy game.....Free money......NO pressure, etc.

Sometimes I struggle keeping focus in a blowout. Especially when the losing team essentially gives up.

Rich, I was only half joking. While I'm out a little longer, at least I have a close game.

Actually blowouts can be more pressure than a close game IMO. For one more things can get out of hand if you do not keep doing your job. Close games often have nothing to do with you or if shots are going in then you do not have much to do.

I did not keep time for my game. I just know I was home real early.

Just home from my game and I was thinking about this thread (how sad is that?)

Last years defending Division Champs against cellar dwellers and a traditionally badddd team...... 103-12

It was 37-4 after the first quarter and 57-10 at half.

JVB's team shows up in the gym just as its 99-12 and they were like and then they all got their cell phones and cameras out and took pictures of the scoreboard......

Nothing to see here.
