What's My Why: Official Cindy Tyzo

June 8, 2026

Cindy Tyzo, West Bloomfield

Tyzo is one of what surely are only a handful of officials who have been registered for two MHSAA-sponsored sports since their first seasons as part of the championship lineup. She's is completing her 33rd year overall after first registering for the inaugural season of competitive cheer in 1993-94, and she also officiated the first season of MHSAA field hockey this past fall. 

Tyzo also just completed her eighth season officiating girls lacrosse. 

I love officiating because I love working with the young people and providing the opportunity for them to do the sport that they love. Because without officials, there's not game.

“What’s My Why” is a weekly feature telling the stories of MHSAA-registered officials in their own words. If you’re an MHSAA official and would like to share your reason why, please submit a 15 to 45-second video, taken horizontally, to director of officials Sam Davis at [email protected].

Don't miss Officiate Michigan Day 2026, July 25 in Grand Rapids! Check out MHSAA.com/OMD to register and learn more.
