"No, three officials won't mean more fouls," Blake sure of the crowd, the coaches and the administration, something must be done to prolong the life of a good official," Blake insists.

"They will rotate just the same as they do in regular rotation. When a foul is called, the two men at that end of the court will shift. So each half they will rotate to all three different spots, and we won't have stereotyped calls from any place on the court.

I'd say basketball officiating is 5 per cent rule knowledge and 95 per cent judgment.

"It puts a lot of strain on the official. You'll see me up screaming any time on rule interpretation, but not on a judgment play," Blake confesses. That's how Blake feels about the men in the striped shirts. And that's why three of them will be working every game in the SBVC Tournament. "We're a relatively young group in the officials association now," Blake observes.

(He works occasional high school games himself, as in the Banning Tournament this "week.) "I am 43. and I would say, literally speaking, there's not an official in our association as old as I am. Most of them are in their early 30's. I would say the average is 30 or 32. "There's a lot of running to officiating, plus the fact of all the abuse from the fans.
