Regional seedings and pairings were decided on last week and it won’t be long before we find out if the voters were correct in their choices.
The most competitive regional in the Washington Sectional looks to be the one at Bloomington Central Catholic.
Morton (22-4), which is on a 10-game winning streak, earned the No. 1 seed over the hosts, even though BCC (20-3) is ranked fifth in the Class 3A state poll and the Potters are sixth.
No. 3 seed Normal U-High, which beat Richwoods last week, also is receiving votes in the state poll.
Washington, with a 15-7 record, is seeded fourth. Bloomington and Metamora round out the field.
This statement has been released in conjunction with my acceptance of district's early retirement pckg. "I have tremendously enjoyed my 39yrs teaching & coaching in the Clinton School District & I hope to be able to continue to serve the community and the school district in a variety of capacities. As AJ Hanafan might have said, “I'll always be a wildcat and a River King.”
Both of my children are CHS grads. I've worked with many wonderful families, assistant coaches & administrators. The students/athletes I've had a chance to work with have been & are fantastic. I’ve always been appreciative of the confidence that Bill Holmstrom showed in me, way back in June, 1978. I think that we've built a solid program that the community & school can be proud of since then. “Do I plan on coaching in the future?” …. “I think I still may have quite a bit of coaching in me.”
