Southern Tioga may consolidate some sports programs
BLOSSBURG — Southern Tioga School District Superintendent Joe Kalata told Mansfield High School wrestling coach Dave Redell Monday that the board wll consider consolidating some sports programs that are seeing declining participation, such as wrestling. “If they are going to be combined, it has to be done the right way,” Redell said, referring to making North Penn High School, a central location in the district, the school used for practices and meets. Redell said he had one “100-win” wrestler on his squad, and his younger brother was right on his heels, but the two will not wrestle if they have to travel to Liberty, some 20 miles from Mansfield, to do it, he said. “How fair is it to ask kids to travel all the way to the other end of the district?” he asked. Kalata said it worked in reverse as well, asking Liberty students to travel to Mansfield would be just as unfair.
