Yes, the KBOA is one of many local associations. I have never been selected for the state tourney, but Vic has been several times (not sure how many). The coaches and assigning secretaries rate the officials and based off that rating, this determines how far you advance in the tournaments: district, region, and selection for the state.
I am not sure how the state refs are selected but sometimes, some regions do not get represented because of the mandated 3 black officials that must go to State.
From my understanding, this attorney is simply backing up what he was given to say. He was not there. Did the guy who removed Vic have the ability to do so? Of course the KHSAA will defend their actions...right or wrong. No one ever thinks that racial comments or taunts warrant any actions...especially those who never have racial taunts aimed at them.
