OFFICIATING

Clinic offered for prospective women's ice hockey officials

An informal clinic for those interested in officiating college women's ice hockey will be conducted at 10 a.m. March 27 at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, Rhode Island. Officiating supervisors from women's ice hockey leagues will present to and collect information from those interested in officiating. The classroom clinic is free and open to anyone interested in officiating.

Directions to the facility are available at www.provcc.com/directions.html.

Sports information directors are encouraged to notify former student-athletes who may have an interest in officiating, and head coaches should share this information with current student-athletes, particularly seniors.

AWARDS

CBS championship coverage earns Sports Emmy nomination

CBS' "Championships of the NCAA" is among five sports shows nominated for a 2003-04 Sports Emmy Award. The season highlights show was nominated in the category of outstanding edited sports series/anthology.

CBS and the NCAA developed the seasonal shows, one for each of the fall, winter and spring championships seasons that airs highlights from each of the championships not receiving live coverage. The shows feature stories, highlights and behind-the-scenes footage from championships that previously had not received such attention.

Other nominations in the sports series/anthology category are HBO's "Legendary Nights," "NFL Presents" by ESPN and NFL Films, HBO's "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel" and ESPN Classic's "SportsCentury."

The program will be presented April 19 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.
