Just for clarification purposes, I was at the mound for 2 or 3 pitches, and told my pitcher to concentrate on his mechanics. That was it. Then I headed back toward the dugout. We are playing under NFHS rules, with modified distances for pitchers mound (54.6 feet) and base distances (80 feet).

Your explanations and rule citations gave me the clarification I needed.

I'll say it again, you guys are AWESOME!

Don't completely disregard what the umpire told you because there are many umpires who are always willing to pick up the dirty end of the stick and will charge you with a conference right or wrong. It might be something to discuss with he umpire before going out there if you are worried about the number of visits.
