SHS Girls Sports Boosted By Cotton Barlow Leadership
Cotton Barlow, Sandpoint High School’s athletic director and football coach, led a push for a total sports program for both boys and girls starting in 1971. The girls’ program grew with new junior high teams, improved facilities, and strong community backing, though gate receipts lag. Alumni Cindy Vig, Sue Hatch, and Cathy Crandall pursue college athletics at North Idaho College and Boise State University, reflecting SHS’s enduring influence.
