Three Rivers Local reports strong spring athletics, discusses new medical provider and staffing openings
Summary
At its June 10 meeting, the Three Rivers Local School District board heard an athletics report highlighting multiple postseason appearances, academic performance among athletes and a proposed switch to Mercy Health for medical coverage; coaches’ openings and new signage were also discussed.
At the June 10, 2025, meeting of the Three Rivers Local School District Board of Education, a district staff member presented a spring athletics report showing multiple teams reaching postseason play, solid academic performance among student‑athletes and staffing and medical‑provider updates.
The presentation said the baseball team finished 17-6, softball finished 16-7 and boys volleyball advanced to the state regional semifinals. Boys tennis had “one of our best seasons in school history,” and the girls softball program was credited with 109 consecutive league wins and its eighth consecutive league championship, a stretch the presenter said ranks sixth in Ohio per OHSAA records. The district reported 13 first-team postseason honorees, 14 second-team selections and 15 honorable mentions; one player of the year and additional all‑state recognition were noted.
The presenter said the spring term grade-point average for athletes averaged 3.24, with roughly 67% of athlete grades above the district’s 3.25 Taylor Scholar threshold. The district said it is considering modest increases to scholar-athlete criteria at the CHL conference level and the Taylor Scholar designation in coming years.
The district described several personnel and operational items tied to athletics. The presenter said the district is negotiating a change in its athletic medical provider to Mercy Health. The presentation stated Mercy’s Bridgetown office would serve as the primary clinic and named Dr. Boson (identified in the presentation as a physician who works with FC Cincinnati) as one of the providers who would work with the district. The presenter said one Mercy hire is already in place and a second candidate is being recruited; the district was unable to transfer existing trainers to Mercy.
Coaching vacancies and hires were discussed: the presenter said openings had existed for girls varsity, wrestling and cheerleading; cheerleading and the varsity baseball opening have been filled, and the district is accepting resumes for remaining openings. The presenter also described facilities and communications updates: old wall stickers and signage in the gym were removed and new signage is scheduled to be installed starting July 21. The district reported its newsletters have a roughly 50% open rate and a 5% click rate and said it will promote season passes as ticket prices rise next school year.
No formal board action on the medical‑provider arrangement or the staffing items was recorded in the transcript excerpt; the presentation was a report to the board. The board plans routine follow up through staff and future meetings.
