It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Craig Pearson, a longtime official for MSHSL Adapted Athletics in soccer, floor hockey, and softball, and our officials coordinator for adapted soccer here at the MAAA.
Craig gave years of dedicated service to our athletes, coaches, and officiating community. He was known for his friendly personality, his professionalism on and off the field, and the genuine care he brought to every game he worked. Athletes, coaches, parents, and fellow officials alike knew Craig as someone who made our sports better simply by being part of them.
Our thoughts are with Craig’s family during this difficult time. We ask our players, coaches, and fans to keep them close in your thoughts as we honor his memory and everything he gave to adapted athletics in Minnesota.
Rest in peace, Craig.
