State this season... a Some fans from Brevard blamed the officiating for the Blue Devils’ 17-14 loss to Kings Mountain in the first round of the State 3-A playoffs. - An article in last week’s Transylvania Times said some Brevard fans“ eriticized" ‘the officials (three: from the Southwesern Confereneeand three from the Western Athletic Conference) who ‘frequently huddled up’ after throwing flags which made the game ‘‘chaotic and jerky.” The fans, the article said, noted in particular the last Lid of the first half, when Brevard was penalized 15 yards with no time remaining, allowing Kings Mountain’s Rusty Bumgard- ner to kick a 43-yard field goal which eventually was the winn- ing margin. But Coach Frank Robinson of the Blue Devils defended the officials and said the controvesial calls ey made were cor- rect. “You can say what you want to about the officiating, but we had a chance to win and didn’t so we only have ourselves to blame. We have to understand that we lost the ballgame, not the officials,” Robinson was quoted as saying. The call on the last play of the half was a defensive block - below the waist. Coach Robinson said the penalty was established several years ago to eliminate chop blocks except in the free-blocking zone (three yards on either side of the ball). It allows only interior linemen and those that tackle the runner to block below the waist. Robinson said he has only seen the penalty called twice in 28 years of coaching. Another call which upset Brevard fans, according to the paper, was an illegal participation call which nullified a long pass from Jeff Bailey to George Wike. Officials ruled that Brevard receiver Steven Penn stepped on the out-of-bounds fine oh then returned to the playing field to make a block on e play. The paper said many Brevard fans are writing Dick Knox 1986 RX1 of the NCHSAA about the officiating in the game. EEE WT 22 rockoge.

Jones said only class 1 and 2 officials are allowed to call playoff games. “We always have this problem at playoffs, but the officials have called many scrimmages, games, attending meetings, and have had many years in the association,” he said. ‘There was plenty experience on the field, that’s for sure.” Jones said the state is considering going to neutral crews in. playoffs, using officials who are used to working with each other and who have not called games involving either team during the regular season.
