I don't think he was saying that the refs were Junior High refs, but rather that the game was being called like a JH game would be.

Well, yeah, he couldn't say exactly what he was thinking... I think I got the drift though.

Yeah, if you were ever were at a junior high game and heard a whistle on every other play, you'd know where he was coming from on that remark. Not necessarily saying the reffing was bad, it was just a lot of touch whistles.

but not today. she did an excellent job
Not from what I saw from Row F. Kiah got whacked in the face - twice - as she tried to put a rebound up for a basket and all the refs called was a turnover on her. Lots of maulings today that didn't get called.

Have to add that when UConn finally figured out that certain things wouldn't get called, they participated in the maulings with great relish.

I did notice that they were relishing the action today.....

Well my daughter is playing HS ball this year, but last season she was playing JH and as the scoreboard operator for the last several seasons, I happened to be at literally scores of games. So I think I have quite a bit of experience "knowing" just how often the whistle is blown at that level of play....and fully understood the remark that was made.;)
