    Can't forget the refs

    Thought this was funny, this guy is like 6'11". I upped the ISO since they were at the far end of the court and out of range of the strobes.

    A lot of the officials around here are former players. I guess that's what you do when you're past your playing days and still want to be on the court!

    It was a women's college game. Around here it's not unusual for a woman to ref a women's game, but you never see them doing a men's game.
