OZARK:    Last evening a basketball referee collapsed during the New Brockton - Dothan game being held at Carroll High School in Ozark.


The referee was standing straight up and went face down on the floor.


Persons on the scene ran to the referee and attempted CPR and used the defibrillator until Ozark Fire Rescue arrived. The referee was rushed to Dale Medical Center where he was pronounced dead by Dale County Coroner Woody Hilboldt.


The referee was a member of the Troy Basketball Officials Association. The game was stopped to allow the fellow referees to go to Dale Medical Center with their fallen comrade. The game was stopped and will resume sometime today.


At this time the name of the referee has not been released.


UPDATED @ 8:42 AM   


Dale County Coroner Woody Hilboldt has not released the name and said it would be later today. Some out of town next of kin notifications have not been made as of this time.


UPDATED @ 3:29 PM   


The referee has been identified as Rodney Nowell.


Prayers are with his famly.
