NFHS Rules - official game.

[WPACoach]

I’m curious is the following situation would be considered an official game:

Home team is winning 5-0 in the bottom of the 5th inning.

Due to rain, the game is suspended.

If the game cannot be continued. Is it an official game? For additional information. The home team was winning 3-0 after 4 innings

Complete NFHS rules are harder to come by online, but by NCAA rules, five innings is a complete game. As the Home team was ahead and up to bat in the bottom of the fifth, that counts. I doubt NFHS requires anything more.

Thanks! This is helpful. 2nd Question. If the game is not completed, would the official score be 3-0? The score at the end of the 4th. Or 5-0? The score when play was suspended.

5-0 home team is ahead, as the rules that JayW posted.

This happened to us last night but in the top of 6. We were up 10-2 but the visiting team was a bat when it started sleeting. Score reverted back to end of 5 complete game.
