The Study of Sports Podcast, Oct. 23, 2025: An intense discussion on high school sports, plus a special wrap-up report as the sports enthusiasts say goodbye to the 2025 Seattle Mariners

Once again, the world of sports pushed our schedule on The Study of Sports.

This was going to be a World Series preview. Or not.

Turns out, it was not.

The Mariners came oh-so-close.

Two of our sports enthusiasts, huge Mariner fans, had plenty to say of their incredible journey and heartache.

But before we get into Mariner stories, we discuss the bizarre situation up north where a school district suspended a high school football coach, just hours before a game, investigated him, and then reinstated him just a few days later. And we note why this story is also important in Southwest Washington.

This latest episode was recorded on Wednesday, Oct. 22.

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 and is now an associate principal at Fort Vancouver.
