There have been no women officials in Major League Baseball or the National Football League. I could be wrong, but I do not believe that there have been any women officials in the National Hockey League. There have been none in the NCAA CWS and I do not recall any at the regionals either. Likewise, I have seen no women in any of the NCAA bowl games. (I don't know of any working in the regular D1 football games but they might be there.)

On the other hand, there have been at least two women in the NBA and several women have called playoffs in NCAA basketball.

I explain the four women in minor league baseball as pro ball covering their behinds against a lawsuit.
