"What we're hoping for is to improve the quality of the experience ex-perience for both the officials and the players." Lone Peak coach Quincy Lewis is also in favor of the change. "Today's game is not the same as 20 years ago," he said. "The players are bigger, big-ger, faster and more physical now, but not necessarily more skilled. "For me personally, I would like to see the level of physical physi-cal play reduced," he added. "If the three-person system does it, I'm in favor of it." Lewis expects some bumps during the transition time. "Maybe initially there will be more fouls called, but once it's been established what kind of game is going to be called, I think they should go down.

Those who came, however, proved to be the right kind of combination that Belleston needed to win the game. The game opened with Ke-nyon Ke-nyon Walker slugging a left-field left-field single off Maxfield. After two straight batters struck out, Tyson Moll doubled to drive Walker home to start the scoring. scor-ing. Gordy Warlamount followed fol-lowed with a double to score "I coached in college eight years and I'm used to that system," Lewis said. "I think the pilot program is an effective effec-tive way to evaluate how well three-person officiating will work in our high schools." McAllister thinks it will actually help teams like his. "It will suit the way I like my teams to play," he said. "When we're coaching defense, we try to teach the kids not to foul, to keep their hands off (opponents) so they don't get silly calls. "Since we try to play as clean as possible now, it won't change the way we play, as opposed to some other teams out there," McAllister concluded. con-cluded. "My hope is that it will help clean the game up." For the pilot program this year, three-person crews will be used for all home games at . 5A schools.

Cardon ground-rule double paved the way for the Vikings to load the bases with no outs to start the bottom of the inning. Sean Stevensen hit a one-run single to set off a seven-run rally for Pleasant Grove. Riley White closed it out with a three-run smash that gave the Vikings a 7-2 lead at the end of the opening inning. in-ning. In the second inning, Blake school administrators have raised concerns about the cost of adding a third official. "It will cost schools about $30 more per game," he said. "The officials association is working with us on a way to keep the costs down. We also don't want to deplete the other oth-er classifications of officials in the pool." Together, the two associations asso-ciations have come up with a plan that they think will also address the retention of younger officials, who often quit because it may take as long as eight years to reach the varsity level. In the pilot program, the third official will be a transitional tran-sitional one. He or she will work the JV game and then stay on as the third person for the varsity contest. "We're kind of killing two birds with one stone," Cuff said.

He kept Judge scoreless by getting Walker to fly out to second. Pleasant Grove added to the lead as Stevensen doubled into left during the bottom of the second, and a Maxfield double brought him home. After the Vikings had prevented the Bulldogs from capitalizing on a two-out Moll single in the top of the third, Judge returned the favor by cials for the varsity game." Cuff noted that there are UHSAA precedents for this method of doing tilings. Soccer Soc-cer games use three officials now, whenever possible, and two of them stay to do the JV game. In volleyball, they use the same two officials for both the JV and varsity matches. "We're really excited about the pilot program," Cuff continued. "Most of the high school officiating camps have three-person training going on now. We also have a lot of officials in our pool who are college officials, so we anticipate an-ticipate the transition will be fairly smooth." Cuff added that if three-person three-person crews become policy, they will be used in girls games as well. It's possible that they will be employed for some classifications and not others, but whatever system is put in place for each classification classi-fication will be used uniformly uniform-ly for both genders. 3 n shop dine discover as 2" Woods & Faux i T it I I ill I 1-1 I V J ft 25 OFF Encourage your children to read a newspaper every day.
