He was also a women’s and men’s basketball official for more than 30 years, officiating in two Division I women’s conferences and numerous NCAA playoff games, and women’s and men’s Division II college basketball. A graduate of Grays Harbor Community College and Oregon State University, Horton played both football and baseball. While in college, he got his start in officiating high school basketball.
