The Cheatham /Grainger game I thought was called very well.  I really like the fact they weren't quick on the whistle with loose balls.  Allowed the kids to play early and get into the tempo of the game.  Didn't get caught up in to the runs by either team and start calling it super tight either way.  Of course, as a fan, I see every call they miss for my team and ignore the ones they miss for the other.  Overall, they did a good job.

There are a couple coaches there who have a history of blaming the officials if their team loses.  Several fans will do the same thing.

Did not call a tight game but seemed consistent on both ends...let the girls play

[sportslover88]

Definitely letting the girls play more than usual this year and I am okay with that. They have been consistent from what I have seen

The officiating in this Loretto-Oneida girl's game is just horrible both ways!

I thought it was mostly called pretty good. The only thing I do not like is assessing the "charge" call so deep under the basket. I believe Tennessee needs to install the "charge circle" for high school basketball.

The refs were allowing both teams to beat the other team like a drum. LOL! You could say that they were allowing them play but a foul is a foul. I don't have any ties to either Loretto or Oneida but they both had to have been frustrated with the lack of calls from getting beat to death. The block/charge call is the toughest call for refs to make in basketball but in this game in my opinion they missed this call alone 3-4 times.

They also let quite a few over the back calls go as well.  You could also say they were at least consistent with their lack of calls both ways as well. They refs didn't show any favoritism towards either team with the officiating but I still think when someone is clearly fouled the whistle has to be blown.

They are always bad, tssaa does not care to do anything about it.  Officiating has been awful all year

There were 2 or 3 officials that I cant for the life of me figure out how and why they were there. I guess it's ok to fall to the floor with the ball and roll now because I never saw a travelling call made when that happened. They let the girls play wayyyy more than games I saw during regular season and district tournament. A couple of local guys from West TN did a pretty good job

They robbed Weathers on the charge call yesterday.
