Put it this way.
There is a shortage of officials for sub-varsity games. There usually is not a shortage of officials for varsity games. The main reason is officials will do a varsity game than rather go to their parents funeral if they had the chance.
But I guess the question is, do you guys in Ohio do 2 Person or 3 Person games? If you are doing 2, it is a lot harder to get in. But if there are 3 Person games, you can always find people, but the quality might be lacking at this point.
In Illinois and especially the Chicagoland area, almost all the conferences have gone to 3 Person Games. But then again, it is harder to find 3 Officials night in night out that have the ability to officiate the games well. But the IHSA has taken great strides and has made training a bigger priority. At leas the officials now have done some 3 Person.
So that might be the problem you have, but I will wait for what your answer is about what kind of games you have.
Peace
