Bill Ward, ECAC Director of Football Officiating, also attended this important contest and represented the ECAC as the crews supervisor.

This is a very experienced, solid, and professional group of men who represented the ECAC in a very competent manner. It was a good day for the ECAC football officiating bureau, the Northeast 10 football conference, and EAIFO whose ranks these men were selected from. This is the first time that the ECAC and the Northeast 10 Conference have been selected to work a Division II football national championship game.
