The Oregon School Activities Association says there is an "urgent need" for basketball and wrestling officials for the upcoming high school winter sports season.

"Oregon has an urgent need for officials in all sports," Oregon Athletic Officials Association executive director Jack Folliard said in statement. "Officials provide valuable service to high schools and students, make a positive impact in the community and build relationships."
