Reporter Paul Valencia and sports administrators Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk about high school sports and more

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.
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.
We’re always interested in subject ideas for a future podcast. Email us a subject idea.

Opinion: HB 1589's ban on natural gas adds ‘more resources’ to solve problems created by the CO2 tax.

Reporter Paul Valencia and sports administrators Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk about high school sports and more.
By Paul Valencia with ClarkCountyToday.com
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.
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.
We’re always interested in subject ideas for a future podcast. Email us a subject idea.

By Paul Valencia with ClarkCountyToday.com
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.
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.
We’re always interested in subject ideas for a future podcast. Email us a subject idea.

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 Liberatorre 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

Reporter Paul Valencia, and local high school administrators Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk about sports
Welcome back to the Clark County Today Sports Podcast. This is Episode 2. (And, by the way, we are open to a new name for the podcast.)
Reporter Paul Valencia, along with school administrators and former coaches Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland talk local and some national sports.
- This week, we talk a little bit about Signing Day and some of the big-name football coaches who have and haven’t come to Clark County to visit potential recruits.
- We get into sportsmanship and what can be done to avoid horrendous, 100-point margins of victory in basketball.
- A salute to Brooklynn Haywood of Union girls basketball for her 50-point game.
- Some coaching changes in local high school football.
- A shout out to Ryland Spencer of Cascadia Preps, and a little known fact: Cale Piland coached Ryland Spencer in Cale’s one season with Juanita football.
- Plus our Super Bowl picks.
As stated when we introduced this podcast, for now we are recording once every two weeks. We appreciate any feedback or topic ideas. Send them to Paul Valencia at: paul.v@clarkcountytoday.com
