It is the return of The Study of Sports.
Yes, we’ve been off for a while. It happens. Three professionals in three different jobs, and there are times it can be difficult finding the perfect time slot in our busy schedules. Did I say our busy schedules? I meant Tony and Cale.
Our podcast format is simple: A longtime sports reporter (Paul Valencia) discusses high school sports, and more, with longtime sports administrators and former coaches. Cale Piland is the former head football coach at Evergreen and Union and is now the athletic director for Evergreen Public Schools. Tony Liberatore is a former assistant coach and athletic director at Columbia River and is now an associate principal at Fort Vancouver.
In our latest podcast, we discuss a WIAA amendment that could affect Fort Vancouver and other area schools in terms of classification.
We also talk 2A GSHL football and its quirky schedule. Did those in the room come up with the right plan? That will be determined. But at least one of us had a positive reaction to the plan.
In pro sports, we talk NFL draft and the start of the baseball season, plus for the first time in a long time … the Blazers!
Oh, and we end with a salute to the greatest musician of all time, according to Paul anyway. Prince 4Ever!
