WAC suspends replay official

DENVER — WAC Commissioner Karl Benson announced the suspension of WAC football replay official Michael Goshima on Thursday.

Goshima was in the replay booth for last weekend's game between San Jose State and Boise State.

The suspension was based on a play where a runner was ruled short of a first down and was confirmed by the replay booth after a review. After further inspection, the runner clearly made the first down and the call should have been reversed.

"The WAC expects the same type of performance from our instant replays officials as we do from the on field officials," Benson said. "And while errors are going to occur — both on the field and in the replay booth —when they do, there must be accountability. Instant replay is used to  get it right on the field and in this case the official had a chance to reverse a call at a very critical time in the game and did not. Thus, he will be suspended for his next assignment."

Goshima will receive a one-game suspension that will go into effect this weekend.
