Reporter Paul Valencia and sports administrators Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk high school sports, and a few other things, too.
Here is Episode 3 of the Clark County Today Sports Podcast.
This week, we welcome our first guest. In preparation for Mat Classic, we talk to the greatest wrestling coach in Union High School history, John Godinho. (Yes, he is the only wrestling coach in school history, but still, he’s pretty great.)
This episode, reporter Paul Valencia, along with sports administrators Cale Piland of Evergreen Public Schools and Tony Liberatore of Vancouver Public Schools talk Mat Classic wrestling, all-league and the controversy surrounding all-league selections, the shot clock in high school basketball, some Super Bowl gloating for some, and mourning for another, and we talk about passionate sports projects. Our friend and baseball nerd John Scukanec was featured in Clark County Today this week for his quest to play catch with someone for 365 days in a row.
Hope you enjoy the podcast. We are always open for subject ideas. Email us at: paul.v@clarkcountytoday.com
And as a reminder, we record the podcast, for now, once every two weeks.
