Spoke with a local reporter from The Oregonian newspaper this morning and she informed me that a story she worked on about a 70 year old basketball official will run on March 17th. The guy is a friend of mine and I've worked numerous games with him over the years. Watching him work, you'd never guess he was anywhere near that age. He gets up and down the court like a 20 year old.
I think it will be a great tribute to him. BTW - there's another ref here in this area who is only one month younger than this guy. No, it's not me, but I'm getting close.
When the story runs, I'll see if I can provide a link.
