For the first time in 12 years, high school football has disappeared from the airwaves.
KSRW (Sierra Wave) sports director Bob Todd said the station dropped the broadcasts “for a number of reasons,” but declined to go into specifics.
The decision is a blow to high school sports fans, as well as to the teams themselves, said Huskies Head Coach Marty Thompson.
“It’s a huge deal to those people who watch the games, and it was a great tool for us.”
It also was a public service that not many communities have ever had a chance to experience.
