UCSportsFan Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 This was the worst officiated, lopsided calling that I have ever seen in my career. These officials were terrible against visiting district 7 so next year I don’t want to hear anyone from District 8 complaining about the refs come region tournament time. It’s a good thing Upperman was 30 points better than Lawrence County because otherwise it would have been grand larceny without a gun. Why is it that refs cannot just call the game honestly? Upperman would have won by at least 30 had they allowed our players to play in the game. They had 3 starters sitting on the bench 3 minutes into the game! What a joke!

They tried their best to affect the outcome of the game. The only reason they couldn’t was because of the disparity between the two teams.

crow6424 Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 (edited) It was like 1950’s officiating. Foul calls for breathing. Girls and boys teams. Really hard to enjoy the game like that even though we won. Hopefully we never have to see those refs again. 44 foul calls in the girls game last night. If you play in the paint you might as well just sit because you will be in foul trouble the whole game. Edited March 1 by crow6424 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumbletypeg Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 You must have had a South Central officiating crew. They are really bad at letting the players decide the outcome of the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering That girls game Wednesday night was as bad as I’ve seen this year and we have some really young and inexperienced refs in the upper Cumberland! In the championship games at Tullahoma, neither had any flow or pace of play, it was like the refs wanted to impact the game and be the reason it was close! Mumbletypeg must have had them at some point this year too because that’s exactly what happened. The refs dictated who was on the floor and who was shooting free throws on some tough calls both ways!

crow6424 Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 Upperman is my team and we won both games but it was the most unenjoyable games I’ve experienced all year. The calls were terrible for both teams each game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
