Moments in Black history
Jim Burch etched his name in the history books when he became the first Black referee to officiate a men’s basketball game in the Atlantic Coast Conference, best known as the ACC. Burch, who grew up for a time in Larchmont, N.Y., was a two-sport athlete at Fayetteville State University and began his offi-ciating career in North Carolina high schools before joining the CIAA ranks as an official in 1959. He would join the ACC a decade later, but his debut was delayed for a season because he reportedly re-fused to cut his hair and sideburns. Over the course of 60 years, Burch not only officiated 14 NCAA tour-naments, he also worked games for the Southern and MEAC conferences. Burch was also the head co-ordinator of officials for the South Atlantic Conference and the CIAA before retiring. Burch passed on his knowledge of the game as a teacher for new officials in training, with many former students taking note of his humility regarding his historic mark, stating he never made a big deal about it.
