Paducah students place at major livestock shows; spring sports ramp up as coach vacancy announced
Summary
Agriculture teacher Justin Nash and Athletic Director Eric Rekieta reported student livestock show placings and spring sports schedules; the district will seek a new girls' basketball coach after Kevin Hurn accepted another job.
Justin Nash gave an agriculture report highlighting student results at recent major shows: McKinley Moore placed third with a Berkshire barrow at San Antonio and made the bonus auction; Maddox Moore placed sixth with a Landrace barrow; McKinley also placed third at Houston and placed eighth at Austin in another class. Nash said stock-show pens were torn down and premium checks were approved, and that volunteers built six deer stands for a military-hunting program.
Athletic Director Eric Rekieta updated trustees on spring sports, noting track, golf and tennis are active. He identified standouts including freshman Brealla Smart (third best regional time in the 200 and fifth in the 100) and senior Darren Mackey (third in region in shot put). Rekieta said the girls' basketball coach, Kevin Hurn, accepted a job at another school and the district will begin looking for a replacement. He also reported a team fundraiser raised just over $5,000.
