High school football conference changes for this season

There will be changes once again this season in area high school
football conferences.  The Marawood Conference will no longer exist as
a football league, but most of it's members will be split into
divisions under the name of the Central Wisconsin Conference.
Stratford and Spencer/Columbus will continue as members of the CWC-
Large Division, and will be joined in that league by Colby, Marathon
and the new Loyal/Greenwood co-op program, along with Amherst,
Weyauwega-Fremont and Wittenberg-Birnamwood.  The CWC-Small will
include Abbotsford, Auburndale, Edgar, Pittsville, Assumption, Iola-
Scandinavia, Pacelli and Rosholt.  Neillsville/Granton and Stanley-Boyd
remain Cloverbelt Conference football members, and Mosinee continues in
the Great Northern Conference.  Also, Athens, Owen-Withee and Thorp
will continue to play eight-man football as part of the CWC-East.
