Davenport appeals WIAA classification

DAVENPORT—The School District joined 11 others in challenging the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association on Class 2B athletics enrollment criteria.

The Davenport appeal was filed Dec. 22, with school officials reluctantly seeking a review of enrollment criteria in a quest to potentially drop into the 1B athletics classification.

The Davenport Gorillas are currently in the Northeast 2B league with Lind-Ritzville, Reardan, Colfax, Liberty and other schools.

WIAA classifies 2B schools as those with 105-224 high school students. Class 1B schools have 104 or less.
