Lightbulb State Finals

Not very many around. More in the city than in other parts of the state. Last year they had 3 female officials work the State Finals. Two of them are D1 Officials and are very good. But outside of the City of Chicago, there are not very many at all. I have only personally worked with 2 my entire career. But in the city association that I belong to, we encourage women to officiate. The other parts not so much, I think that is why the numbers are not so high.

I almost forgot, one of these officials was named "Official of the Year" by the IHSA. There is a Rules Interpreter and Clinician with the IHSA that is a female official. So we do have them, but not in that big of numbers.

Peace
