2009 Final Four Officials
Who will get the call for this weekend? Will the ones that called last weekend be the ones that will be called to work this weekend?

I asked a similar question about "pool of available officials" in another thread and this is what BNR said:

Next week each region will have 9 officials working. 3 separate officials for each game: regional semi-final, regional semi-final, regional final. That means 36 officials will work next week and of those 9 will move on to work the National Semi's and Final.

I have asked not to be considered for officiating the Final Four, since baseball season has started.

Might not mean anything anymore with Adams in charge now, but the last two years (2008, 2007) 5 of the 9 worked the Sweet Sixteen Round. In 2006 4 worked the Sweet 16.

Based on performance so far, I think Tony Greene and Jamie Luckie are in.
Possibly Dick Cartmell, Mark Whitehead, Doug Shows, John Cahill, John Hughes.

Officials who have stood out to me are Jamie Luckie and Les Jones.

Tony Greene is about as steady as you can get so I wouldn't be surprised to see him there again.
