Riverside native Verle W. Sorgen, Coordinator of Football Officiating for the Pacific-10
Conference since 1986, announced Monday he was retiring. The former USC baseball, basketball and track and field athlete was honored two years ago by the National Football Foundation for his work as as a college football official capped off by his 21 years as head of the Pac-10 officials.

Before that, Sorgen had 21 seasons as an on-field Pac-10 official including six as a referee.

"Verle Sorgen has been a superb coordinator," Pac-10 Commissioner Tom Hansen said Monday, indicating that Sorgen, a resident of Fairfax, will continue to be associated with the Conference as he will oversee the Pac-10' instant replay program,working with the new coordinator.

A search for a replacement for Sorgen would begin immediately,Hansen said.
