This method of selection is wrong for many reasons. What if one official got around to see more coaches than another official?

What if one (or more) of the coaches lost a game in the finals two years ago and leave one of the best officials off the list because he/she made a big call?

What if a coach thinks the older officials should work the state games?

What if the coach thinks the younger officials should work the state games?

Like others have mentioned, all of these factors could be hashed out by using expert opinions for the selection. The coaches' opinions could be part of the formula (a very small part) but should be the deciding factor.
