Dodge said junior high boys basketball has 36 players and that the district posted a third coach position "a few weeks ago" but has had no interest. For high school athletics, Dodge noted two home basketball games remain including Thursday's Senior Night and that Districts are scheduled Feb. 10 at West Valley. He reported wrestling qualifiers are approaching and spring sports will begin March 4.
On cooperative teams, Dodge said Tekoa/Rosalia declined to combine with Liberty this year for baseball; however, Liberty will continue cooperative arrangements for golf with Tekoa and soccer with Cheney.
