Officials clash over Middletown Taft game referees
Paul Walker avoids taking sides as Middletown High and Taft players clash with officials. Taft coach Marvin McCollum criticized Fred Alcorn, while Ed Payne says Alcorn filled in for Carl Trusty. The Greater Miami Conference assigns officials by year, with next year’s Hamilton taft game to be called by the same pair. Walker notes fouls matched Hamilton totals, and blames turnovers and errors by Taft guards for the loss.
