It is public information or can easily be obtained. Everyone screams about transparency, unless they are the ones being talked about. Officials want the acknowledgement when they are selected to work a tournament, but then if things don't go well, they don't want anyone to talk about it. You get the good with the bad.
The state seems to have bigger issues with the conduct of the schools (players and coaches) than with the officiating.
