I just received word today that I am working the Maryland 4A girls state semifinal on Thursday. I was thrilled just to be nominated to work a state game. Being assigned one has put me on cloud 9!

Good luck to everyone else working state tournament games!!!

Congrats
 
OC: congrats on your assignment. What part of MD do you live in? Myself & a few others are in the PG County area. I plan to be at the state tourney this year, and I have a few friends who are working. I also see that you work in the Capital Conference on the women's side, I have friends in that conference who work womens ball. What a small world! Once again congrats!

OC: Congrats on your assignment. I know your dad is proud of you. Talked to him at association meeting about 3 weeks ago. I'm going to Richmond on Saturday for the VA state finals (watching, not officiating). We will have games at 11, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. Going to be a long day!

Brian...I live in Ocean Pines just 10 minutes from the beach and work for board 157.

DBL.. I haven't actually talked with dad yet. Mom was super excited for me though!

To Everyone... Thanks for the encouragement! I'll report back after the game!

ocreferee:

Having just recently finished officiating a State Semi Final and Final for the first time in my career, all I can say is congratulations and enjoy the moment. Remember: alot of officials can call fouls and violations, but I would risk saying that at the "Big Show" you have to remember a reason you also are there is because of how well you can manage the game. Congratulations!

Congrats on the call. Do a great job!!!!!!
