First, with the reclassification in high school sports will the coverage remain to the biggest class only? The current 4A gets almost all the attention these days. Will the same be true for the new 6A?

Local newspapers seem to do the best in terms of high school coverage. The O has to pick and choose, especially with football. There’s only so many tv cameras in town so only the big games get covered. But, after a while there’s so much local town coverage that it looses it’s novelty to the kids when it’s the same star athlete every week.

The O won’t cover anything non-OSAA, so there’s never any Lacrosse, Water Polo or Ski coverage.

And what about those O prep writers? Do they do anything else but write maybe two stories a week?

The new thing I noticed a few weeks ago is what some kids at Lake Oswego are doing (www.lakerbroadcasting.com). They get their school online and do a fairly good job.
