I wanted to get this out there for debate now. Now that we know who will be playing in the men's Final Four it is now time to start trying to figure out who will be working the games at the Final Four. After watching most of the tournament games. My picks for officials based on what I observed and who I thinks deserves to work the Final Four are:
Game 1
Michigan State
Arizona
Referee: John Clougherty
Umpire: David Libbey
Umpire: Ted Valentine
Game 2
Duke
Maryland
Referee: Tim Higgins
Umpire: Ed Hightower
Umpire: Mike Sanzere
National Championship
Referee: Jim Burr
Umpire: Gerry Beaudroux
Umpire: Scott Thornley
I curious for thoughts and/or different opinions on these names??

I do not know if your list would be completely accurate. The same officials doing the semifinals are the only ones that can do the finals if I am not mistaken. So for example, only officials like Ted Higgins, Ed Hightower and Teddy Valentine would do the finals if your list was accurate. The officials go through a tournament from what I understand themselves.
