Unfortunately, the "system" that Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. has described for MI and OH is similiar to the practice used in WI.

Conference Commissioners assign conference games during the regular season. The WIAA (Wisconsin Interscholatstic Athletic Association) assigns officials for the tournament games. The WIAA solicits "feedback" from the coaches to "rate" the officials. Most of the coaches I have spoke to about this do not like it, and, of course, Officials do not like it.

I have sent correspondence to the WIAA and even proposed that valid solution. Using "retired" officials to evaluate officials. The WIAA gave the "proverbial" well give it consideration. Change is difficult AND in this case viewed as too expensive.
