What's My Why: Official Jarrett Skorup

June 17, 2026

Jarrett Skorup, Midland

Skorup has served as an MHSAA-registered official on the wrestling mat the last 16 seasons and added soccer over the last two school years.

I started wrestling when I was 4 or 5 years old. I had a father who was a coach for 33 years and then became an official. So I love continuing that legacy with our family. I have a son now who is almost in high school, and he was my towel tapper for many years, and he talks all the time about wanting to become an official.

I’ve been doing it for about 15 years. I really particularly love when you get one of these matches, where it’s two kids, maybe they’re newer, but they give it their all, their teammates are involved in the match, they have a great close match, and they get done and they have a lot of respect for each other. So I love staying involved in the sport, and I love seeing kids grow through it and become better men and better women.

“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].
