OSAA to use three-person officiating for basketball
The OSAA Executive Board
has approved the use of three-
person officiating crews for the
6A, 5A and 4A basketball play-
offs beginning in 2017.
The expansion takes effect
with this season’s early round
playoff games at high school
sites, as well as the quarterfi-
nals through the state champi-
onship games at final and neu-
tral sites.
Schools and leagues in all
classifications will continue to
have the option of using three
or two-person crews during the
regular season, provided the
local officials associations are
able to cover the games.
This option was allowed, for
the first time, during the 2015-
16 season with nine of 38
leagues choosing to use three-
person crews.
“Cooperation between the 17
local associations and OSAA
member schools and leagues
made the first year a positive
one and we are excited to move
forward,” said Cindy Simmons,
OSAA Assistant Executive
Director in charge of basket-
ball. “A strong commitment to
training at the local association
level has been a key to the suc-
cess along with the financial
commitment from schools and
the OSAA Executive Board in
adding an official.
“The vast majority of state
high school associations in the
country are using three-person
crews during the regular and
post season and we’re looking
forward to joining them.”
At the conclusion of the
2016-17 season, information
will be gathered from schools
at all classification levels and a
thorough review of the effects
of using an additional official
will be conducted. The goal is
to implement the use of three-
person crews in the post-season
for all classifications soon.
Win a Ford truck at sixth annual Siuslaw Open next month
This year the grand prize at
the Siuslaw Open is a brand
new Ford F150 truck. “All that
is necessary is to hit a hole-in-
one on the designated hole,”
said David Wiegan, tournament
co-chair and former golfer.
“First, get the distance cor-
rect, then hit it straight. It’s a
piece of cake — Well, almost.”
Johnston Motors is once
again the hole-in-one contest
sponsor at the sixth Annual
Siuslaw Open.
This year, the event will be
held at Ocean Dunes on
Saturday, Sept. 10, with regis-
tration starting at 9 a.m.
Also new this year is a
$5,000 putting contest. One
entrant will be selected at ran-
dom and will have one try to
sink a 60 foot putt. “This one is
a lot shorter, and is even easi-
