Incline to play as independent in football
By Jim Krajewski, Reno Gazette-Journal
Low numbers and a lack of experience will take Incline football out of the 2A and into independent status next season.
The Highlanders forfeited three games last season, at Battle Mountain, and home games versus 2A state runner-up Yerington and 2A state champion Pershing County, because athletic and school officials thought the games were not safe for the Incline players.
At the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association Board of Control meeting on Wednesday at the Silver Legacy, the members voted to allow Incline to play football as an independent team for one season in 2017.
