Hess returns to ACC tournament

Bookmark and Share

Longtime ACC official Karl Hess returned to the ACC tournament on Thursday night, working the Wake Forest-Maryland game.

Hess did not work the ACC tournament last year in Atlanta, which set off a controversy when three officials taped Hess' initials to their sneakers for the first game of the tournament.

Hess was involved in a firestorm last season with N.C. State after he had former players Chris Corchiani and Tom Gugliotta ejected from the Florida State game in Raleigh.
Hess, who has worked 22 ACC games this season, the most of any official, has not refereed an N.C. State game yet this season.

And I am betting that he doesn't call any NCSU games this season either.

It's official

Gatr and Son will be in attendance for Session 4. Very excited, albeit with no one to root for in the 7pm game. Sorta long drive so the Heels better win! :-)

Great!

Have fun! Go Heels!

aWESOME!
