A couple of them were deserved, which I attribute to it being an emotionally charged playoff atmosphere, high adrenaline, and boys being boys. Others were not so clear cut, which I attribute to Lexington refs not knowing much about football, understandable when you see the bulk of the teams down there play. Facemasks are going to happen, and there isn't in incidental call in high school.

I agree some where deserved, but what about the one on the kick off when the return man dropped the ball and he and the HHS player both dove for it. The JC player got there first and when the HHS player landed on top of him they call a PF late hit. That was a bad call.
They play when a JC player had the ball with a HHS defender on his back, and Bruns(I think) came over and hit him and it drove all three out of bounds; how was that a late hit? It looked like the refs had it in for Burns.
JC was also called for a late hit in second half that I thought was a bad call, so it went both ways.
One of the face mask calls happened right in front of me, and the defenders forearm was around his mask, but no hand was near it. Correct me if I am wrong, but that is no face mask.
Against JC, HHS was able to over come all the penalties, but against CCH a bad refed game could cost either team big. I just hope we have good refs for next week, so it is decided on the field and not by the refs.
