Johnston, who lives in Missoula, will serve as an official on the field during the game. Antonietti, of Spokane, Washington, will be the replay official.
Johnston and Antonietti are both graduates of the University of Montana. Johnston graduated from Butte High in the late 1980s, while Antonietti graduated from Butte Central in the early 1970s.
