Playoff season arrives for high school football, volleyball, and girls soccer as The Study of Sports dives into local matchups and a quick turn to pro sports talk, including a World Series recap.

Reporter Paul Valencia and sports administrators Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk about high school sports first from the perspective of our jobs, then our fandom comes out when we talk pro sports

A home game for Camas football.

A “home” game for Seton Catholic football.

A “road” game for La Center football, but a game that will be played in Clark County so not so much of a road game.

And a real road game for Washougal football.

Those are just some of the highlights of this episode of The Study of Sports.

It’s high school playoff season for fall sports. We give a shout out to the football teams, as well as the volleyball and girls soccer teams that are still playing.

Later, we get into pro sports, and recap the World Series. For Mariner fans, was it hard to watch the World Series this year?

This latest episode was recorded on Wednesday, Nov. 12.

Our podcast format is simple: A longtime sports reporter (Paul Valencia) discusses high school sports, and more, with longtime sports administrators and former coaches. Cale Piland is the former head football coach at Evergreen and Union and is now the athletic director for Evergreen Public Schools. Tony Liberatore is a former assistant coach and athletic director at Columbia River and is now an associate principal at Fort Vancouver.
