[Truth]

1. The selection of referees for the AIT was done solely by Ashland.
2. The assigning of referees for each game was done solely by Ashland.
3. In recent years, Ashland has become quite dependent upon Kouns in important games.
4. The NCC game was never close enough for Kouns to assist Ashland. Still, although Ashland, from the beginning, played from behind and had to play catch up and had to press almost the entire game, the teams shot the same number of foul shots and NCC committed one more personal foul than Ashland.
5. Kouns seems to perform his magic in both halves. The most blatant example was in the opening round of the district tournament in 2009.
6. Kidwell is wise to blackball Kouns. Others should be wise enough by now to do the same.
7. I agree with most of what was posted directly above by Leaping Lee (other than the part that is Ashland spin). Leaping Lee is a good man although we don't always agree on specifics.
