For me, officiating was my way of staying close to the game that I love. I knew that my basketball career was going to end at the close of my senior season in HS, so I started refereeing on Saturdays when I was still in HS. I have never put down the whistle and am now going on 17 years of calling the best sport in the world. Sure the extra money is nice, but for me, it is the one way that I can still be a major part of the game that I love.
