The referee suffered a concussion and a brain bleed, among his injuries.
Referee Shawn Rowe said he was working a high school recreation league game at a community center on May 17 when a coach chirped at him even after the game was over, reported by“I show up to do my two-game set, and I’m working with a familiar coach,” Rowe said. “I figure worst case it will be a slight confrontation, but nothing serious. It was everything but.”
However, Rowe said the coach, his wife, and his teen son continued to escalate the conflict. He said the coach and his son ran towards Woodward and punched him in the face. “We have constant threats towards us all over town doing games, but to see this kind of violence to an official,” said President of the Southern Nevada Officials Association Vince Kristosik. “It’s hard for me to find a story where this much physical injury occurred to someone here to officiate a game.”
