WBA Officials on the Move…

Two WBA Officials have been hired by the NBA effective at the start of the 2004-2005 season. Please extend your heartfelt congratulations to:

  • Olandis Poole of Newport News, VA
  • Eric Lewis of Daytona Beach, FL

Olandis and Eric played vital roles on the 2004 WBA officiating staff. They exhibited their leadership abilities and abundance of experience on the court each game. The WBA is proud to have had Olandis and Eric participate in the league.

Unfortunately, due to NBA contract restrictions that prohibit NBA officials from working in other professional leagues, Olandis and Eric will not be able to work in the WBA. They will, however, continue to assist with the development and evaluation of officials during the 2005 season. We wish Olandis and Eric great success in their NBA careers.

On another positive note, six WBA Officials have been hired by the ACC/SEC effective 2004/05 season. We want to congratulate:

  • James Barker of Ellenwood, GA
  • Ron Groover of Newnan, GA
  • Travis Correll of Suwanne, GA
  • Jason McNeil of Atlanta, GA
  • Brain Forte of Marietta, GA
  • John Goble of Miami, FL

We are happy to say that these six officials will continue to work on the WBA staff for the 2005 season.

We wish each of them the best in their officiating careers.
