Show Request Made For Wayne High to Join Region 8 BICKNELL - Approval for Wayne High School to become a part of Region Eight, in the Utah High School Activities Assn. was given by the Wayne County Board of Education. The change resulted from realignment of Region Seven's boundaries, in which Wayne High was located, and the Isolation of the school as one of only three left in the area In Class 1-A. The change is contingent on approval of Region Eight officials. If approval Is made, Wayne High will compete with small schools in the Piute, Garfield. Kane, Washington, Iron and Beaver county areas in all interschool programs, including sports. Wayne is the second school in Region Seven to request a change to Region Eight North Sevier High School has petitioned Region Eight officials for permission to be Included in that region's football program. North Sevier and Gunnison are the only schools left In R?giun Seven with a 1-A status in aOdition to Wayne since realignment of the region's boundaries, and Indications are that they may both seek a change in region designations to allow them competition with other schools In the 1-A bracket. |
