On April 26, the KHSAA will honor the top officials for 2015 at the Association’s 22nd Annual Officials Recognition Banquet. The ceremony, conducted at the KHSAA Offices, honors the finalists for each sport or sport-activity in which the KHSAA licenses officials.
Finalists in each sport were selected through a combination of their service to their association and excellence in officiating.
