Baseball and softball plans delayed at Ottawa High
Ottawa High School will not present a plan to add baseball and softball to the Ottawa Board of Education on Monday. Principal Gary Mavity cited lack of unanimous support and competing district needs as reasons to hold the proposal. He noted startup costs around 16 000 dollars with two coaches and varsity teams, and said the issue could reappear later, possibly this summer, while the board considers other spending proposals.
