Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.

We know that spring sports playoffs have started, but we also just had to talk fall sports - specifically football, with a new playoff format coming to the Washington. Nope, it is not a 32-team state bracket. The state tournament remains at 16 teams. But it will certainly look and “feel” like a 32-team bracket. We explain.

We also discuss scholarship offers to a standout athlete, who just happens to be a sophomore.

And we talk about a new football coach in Woodland.

Plus pro sports. Mariner fans are struggling. And we all wish the best for Lincoln Victor, former Union Titan, who has signed a free agent contract in the NFL.

The podcast format is simple. Tony Liberatore of Vancouver Public Schools and Cale Piland of Evergreen Public Schools give their thoughts, along with Clark County Today reporter Paul Valencia. Liberatore and Piland are longtime sports administrators. And Valencia has been a sports reporter in the region for more than 20 years.

We lead with high school sports. Then talk college and pro, too. And usually a few light items beyond sports.

Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.

We took an extended break, but we’re back, and we are discussing rumors of a transfer portal in Washington high school sports.

That is not the plan, we assure you.

The WIAA is looking at its transfer policies, and there could be major changes, but a transfer portal is not in the works, according to Mick Hoffman, the WIAA’s executive director. We discuss what is in the works as the WIAA researches different approaches.

We also give a shout out to Skyview softball and Union boys soccer, with a month to go in spring sports.

Plus some breaking news. Well, not anymore. But kind of breaking news with Battle Ground hiring a new boys basketball coach.

And a salute to Union baseball for its Honor Game earlier this week.

Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.

In this episode, we talk about the calm before the storm. It’s spring sport season for high schools, but most teams are about to take a break for spring break. Then it will be time for the stretch run. Oh, and this year will be the traditional spring sports championship schedule. Next year, though, the WIAA is changing the schedule.

We also talk about state football championships returning to Husky Stadium for the next two seasons.

Then we get into Major League Baseball, March Madness, and for some reason, old-school USFL.

Clark County Today Sports Podcast, March 6, 2024: A salute to the Camas girls basketball team, and a welcome to In n Out Burger.

Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.

In this episode, we salute the Camas girls basketball team. A team on a mission ever since last year’s loss in the championship game. This year? The Papermakers are state champions. We discuss this great team, and a little behind the scenes of how Clark County Today was able to produce a special video of the team celebrating that championship.

We also talk about the state tourney in general, storming the court in high school vs. college, and we get into what could be the biggest news in Clark County history: In n Out Burger is on the way!

(And a clarification: I love Burgerville and appreciate its local roots. I just find In n Out Burger, and its pricing, to be better suited for me!)

We recorded this episode a few days after one of the biggest days in Clark County high school wrestling history, with seven state champions, including four from Skyview.

Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.

We say congrats to all the Clark County wrestlers who won state championships at Mat Classic, including four champions from Skyview. What a night!

We also discuss the upcoming state basketball tournaments, seeding, and yes, the ridiculous RPI announcements from the WIAA that means absolutely nothing. Yes, we touched on that on our last episode, but we returned to the subject because of the confusion that the WIAA allows when posting RPI every week, even though the selection committee does not use the RPI! Stop the madness!

And we recap the Super Bowl, which was a terrible matchup for a couple of us.
