It’s too bad the referees decided the game ahead of time. If it would have been fairly played it would have been an exciting game maybe would have ended in a shoot out. Unfortunately the referee that has a skunk dyed hair do was constantly asking his sideline refs what to call cause he doesn’t know the game or rules decided for the boys. I know because other referees have talked about the fact he is always asking sidelines what to call. Disappointi g for the boys to not have both sides play a fair and clean play. It would be better to win by skill not by incompetent refs. They knew they were wrong and asked to be escorted to their cars.
