Nope, didn't get to Sharon Springs myself - in fact most of my officiating was in the area around Manhattan while I was in school at K-State.

The pheasant hunting was good around home this year!

He works a lot of Mid-Continent League, NWKS League, etc. Russell to Smith Center to St. Francis to Sharon Springs more or less. He's in Hill City. They run 3-man out there, but barely have enough officials to cover. Where is your wife from?

I was reading the post about officiating a game where the official was related to players/coaches, etc. I was wondering what part of Northwest KS your father officiated? I am originally from Northeast KS but my wife is from Northwest KS. Her dad has made comments in the past about the shortage of officials out in that area.
