Yea. Fair assessment. I like the list. Escambia is the best Panhandle team, Niceville is barely slugging it out and scrapping by on wins to maintain their record. After that it gets debatable.

Not very often. Yes, I would agree.

I guess my 8-2 week wasn't worth a mention lol.

Pompano Beach - 1976 St. Cloud - 1980 Still 2 before them.

I had to pick the Rock. It's where I graduated from. You don't pick against your school. Cost me 2 picks so far.

It's easy to say that someone watching from the sideline or the stands and think "why is the defender making contact on a player when play is across the field?" but on the field you may not in that moment know that, you are just trying to cover the reciever and focusing on the guy you guarding so they may not realize the play has moved away from that side when they make that contact My point being is while i understand what you saying it's easy to watch the entire field when you aren't on it, when you are playing your focus should be on your assignment so if it's man to man you focus on your player your supposed to guard

That was certainly unsportsmanlike conduct by that Centennial Coach. Once again, how can the high school children be expected to act in a civil matter when the "adult" coaches cannot?

It is Pahokee and Carol City. Carol City was winning titles back in the 1970's.

In terms of judgement how often do we see PI calls away from the play that late in the game? I would have to think most officials will let the game play out and avoid throwing a flag on a PI call in that situation if it has no impact on the play

Hwy17, if a pass interference foul is away from the play, it might be a personal foul but is usually not pass interference. Again, it depends on the judgment of the official.

Purple and Gold Tiger Stripes man, I would agree with your statement. The non-player safety foul away from the point-of-attack would not be ignored, but that foul would probably not be penalized either. Possibly, a warning to the player committing the foul to be careful.

Hwy17, uncatchable is NOT a factor when determining a pass-interference foul in NFHS rules.

Perspective, the referee just has to use his/her best judgment. It is usually very obvious anyway, when a team is attempting to consume or conserve time. I could count the number of times on one hand that the referee has had to actually enforce this rule, it is very rare. A big part of being a game official is using the best judgment, and trying to apply common-sense, logical reasoning to any decision. I am sure that your father, the basketball official, would agree.

Great talent does not necessarily equate to great teams.
