7 points in a championship game....7 dang points?!

Sounds like the refs could have pulled chairs out onto the court and watched the game sitting down.

One of those refs was an infrequent poster but frequent lurker on this board.

I won't reveal his identity unless he chooses to.

Here is the actual game if anyone wants to have something playing in the background while they sleep. OSAA.tv Video Portal

If I was trying a case for a shot clock, I would simply play a video of the second quarter and rest my case.

The spectators should ask for their money back.

Or we could just watch the Boys 5A championship game that you worked after the snooze fest that was the girls game

Congrats BTW!

Imagine the excitement of being assigned to this game, showing up to officiate, and you have to endure THAT?.....yuck!

At least the crew didn't get paid by the whistle...

Anyone seen the film of Milan vs Muncie?

Even though White conceded the jump ball to begin the game, would anyone penalize Blue's jumper for catching the toss with one hand and throwing it to a teammate?

Announcer stated that Tyler Pendergast and Bill Draper were the officials, and that this would be the easiest game check that they ever received.

I saw that also. Talk about an omen of things to come. I guess I'm OK with passing on a whistle here. White conceded the tip and I have to think that threw the blue player off enough to cause the violation.

I had never officiated a game where at halftime, I didn't even grab a towel to wipe my forehead of sweat, until now!!!

I was one of the fortunate/unfortunate officials of this game that ended as the lowest scoring game in Oregon State Championship history. I was the lead official during the second quarter and didn't leave from there until approximately 6 seconds left in the quarter. The Springfield coach asked me at one point in time what I thought about it, in which I said "I just don't want to stiffen up just standing here".

Funny one about this is that my partner about 5 minutes into the second quarter asked the ball handler at the mid court area if she had dribbled yet or not because he wasn't quite sure after that amount of elapsed time.

One hour and two minute game and I think I blew my whistle a total of 11 times all game, just an approximate. The tournament director asked if we would like to donate our game check back or at least at a reduced rate, jokingly of course!
