Women's Final Four
 

Does anybody know officials working the women's Final Four....

Isn't the answer always Eric Brewton and Lisa Mattingly?

Don't forget Dee....

So lets come up with the other six....

Neither of them were in the FF last year, and I think it's been a couple years since Eric made it.

Kantner in the final is a given.

Joe Vaszily.

Wasn't Felicia Grinter on the Tennessee game with the basket mixup?

Mattingly, Mattingly, Mattingly, Mattingly, Mattingly...did I mention Mattingly?

The pony tail will be wavin'!

She didn’t make it last year. I agree that normally she’s a given, but there’s no reason to believe she’s a shoe-in.

Has anyone ever done more Finals? More Final Fours?

It got to be a point that we hardly did not see her. I guess if she did not get it last year that is kind of a shock because you could normally count on her being there. This IMO makes the Women's process a joke to many. At least on the Men's side, you see some movement all the time. There might be a guy that works a lot, but they might not even get the Final if they are in the FF roster. Teddy Valentine has been there multiple times, but he did not get the Final very often in those runs. I just think the women's side stunts the growth of many officials by putting one or two people there all the time.

Louisville/Mississippi State

Mattingly, Denise Brooks, Penny Davis

I tried to research the Women's Final Four records online and discovered that Mattingly worked the:

Final Four - 1999-2007, 2009-2016, 2018

Championship - 2001-2007, 2009, 2013, 2014

I believe that all are the most of any official. Not 100% sure.

(I seem to recall reading another article where it was indicated she was injured in 2008, not sure though)

Notre Dame/UConn:

Lisa Jones, Michael McConnell, Karen Preato

My guess for the final is Kantner, Vaszily, Napier.

Brenda Pantoja instead of Napier......
