Clark County Today Sports Podcast, Nov. 8, 2024: It’s football playoff time, plus a salute to veterans

Clark

The sports enthusiasts talk about Week 10 football playoff matchups and the changes in the system over the years, plus, on personal notes, how our careers have changed over the years

ClarkCountyToday.com

The Week 10 football playoff games begin tonight (Friday, Nov. 8) and continue with some matchups Saturday, and next week, we will be starting the state football playoffs.

A perfect set-up for this edition of the Clark County Today sports podcast. 

Plus we talk a bit about our own personal career choices. Reporter Paul Valencia is no longer sports only. He hasn’t been for a long time now, but it really hit home the last few weeks. And our sports administrators, Tony Liberatore and Cale Piland, have had interesting turns in their careers in education. 

We also give a salute to Veterans Day, and Paul Valencia discusses his feeling on being a veteran.

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 is now an associate principal at Fort Vancouver.
