There were 7 of us clustered tightly...less than 2 school votes apart....5 made it, 2 didn't. (association votes and school votes are weighted differently...giving fractional total votes.) With 1 more school vote, I would have moved up 3 spots or 1 more offiical vote, I'd be up 2 spots. Either would have had me in.
Here is how it looked...14th through 20th....school vote = 1, officials vote = 0.435. I'm the one in red.

True...I've seen officials that I've thought were fairly poor officials only to see them a year or two later and be impressed. Officals (hopefully most) improve...some more than others. Officials all have an occassional bad game. If you saw me 10 years ago, you'd have laughed if someone mentioned I'd ever be near a varsity game much less a tourney. I had a lot to learn and its taken me a while but I get better every year....and will keep pushing to improve.
