HELP - Wrong info from scorekeeper

[OmniSpiker]

Why would H rotate if they haven't lossed a rally to V yet? Am I missing something here?

That's the whole point of the OP. H wasn't supposed to rotate, but they did, because they were told by R2 and SK that H2 was the proper server.

Again, I don't know NCAA rules. I know we discussed this on the NFHS board (it actually was a thread that I started last year) and Jan had excellent posts talking about how the rule book does not cover mistakes made due to an official's error. He received a clarification from someone (don't remember who) that this mistake could be corrected since it was caused by the officiating crew, but that was a Fed ruling, not NCAA.

I read,
R2 did not instruct H to rotate, but merely stated the next server H2. At this level, there shouldn't be this kind of confusion amongst the player and who is currently serving, who's next especially on first serving order. Yet it happened. Both Scorekeeper and R1 should've questioned R2 why rotate H forward immediately? V team was indicated as out of rotation, not determined to be a rotation/serving order ahead or behind. Scorekeeper hasn't done anything wrong, until allowing H team to be out of serving order and continuing to add score. Either team could've requested a line up check.

My understanding is that it is typically go back to last known accurate info (USAV), can't reward/penalyze team for officiating mistakes that can be corrected. It's just ugly to show on scoresheet how one team is on X rotation serving order and the other team is on totally separate Y rotation serving order.

I'll be interested in how this gets fixed...I take it was several serving order into the set/game.

I totally don't accept the USAV excuse that, "I go with whatever the scorekeeper has on record," when the scorekeeper took directions from the R1 or R2 as to who's serving when it's wrong info.
