First round boys tonight here. We have an 8 seed against a 9 seed, two small (Division 5) schools. About as good an assignment as there is for the first round, considering most of the top teams either get byes or play a 50 point blowout.

It Ain't Bragging If You Can Do It (Dizzy Dean) ...

As an "experienced" journeyman official, I don't get a lot of coach votes for the state high school tournament and I'm alright with that. I know my limitations and the guys that do make it are almost always much better officials than me.

However I got an email this morning. I was selected to work the Catholic middle school state tournament, the second year in a row that I've been selected. And to top it off, my partner is a friend, a top notch official, that I observed working a high school state tournament game last night.

Not a big deal for most of you but it's a big deal for me. It's Saturday afternoon. I can't wait. I'm now officially a part of March Madness. Do I get a secret decoder ring? How about a "Fashion Police" badge?

Well done, Billy. It's always nice this time of year when the caller ID shows it is the state tournament assignor -- no matter what level of state tournament.

Billy,

Where is that game being played? If it is close enough, I would like to see you work.
