October 31, 2008 - Mountain Crest vs Cyprus - Playoffs!

Randy Sedgwick (HL), Drew Weidman (U), Craig Adams (R), Chris Reid (LJ), Scott Zellmer (BJ)

My first game as a referee in the playoffs. It wasn't as close as the score indicated. From start to finish, Mt Crest totally dominated. The final score was 49-7 but it was not pretty. It was also the first game I think I've ever officiated where neither team called a time out during the game. Drew got his toenail stepped on and was hurting. Everyone did a great job. We had a minor mishap but we recovered since we really did not have a chance to do anything different.

October 24, 2008 - Layton Christian vs Altamont

Dan Heugly (HL), Bryan Burke (U), Ken Mitchell (R), Cameron Jackson (BJ), Craig Adams (LJ). Yes, line judge. I know, not my normal spot on the field but I've done it a few times over the years. I was able to get a new appreciation for the position as well as watch some other officials that either I had not worked with or that needed to be observed. I don't post personal notes about officials here but it was good to be there. The game was as whacky as any I've had this year. 44-34. 7 touchdowns in the 2nd quarter and about that many flags to boot. Two point conversions attempted from the 40? You never know what you might find on a Friday night. (or day for that matter).

Wonderful scenery and weather for this late in October!

Playoffs start next week!
