Board hears from two speakers

Wayzata athletic director Jaime Sherwood spoke to the board briefly, saying his school appreciated the work of the MSHSL throughout this process. He added that Wayzata does not agree with its placement into the Lake Conference, and that he feels the “correct placement” would have been into the Northwest Suburban.

Osseo principal Bob Perdaems spoke on behalf of the Northwest Suburban, saying his conference agrees that the Lake is a better fit for the four Classic Lake schools.

The Lake Conference has several representatives in the room, but none chose to speak.

Vote coming up shortly.

One correction (minor one) John - Jamie is the “Activities Director” not Athletic Director.

Keep up the good work… this isn’t going to die soon.

Not that I understand the politics of it all but why does a huge Lake conference make more sense than expanding the Northwest Suburban. Wayzata and Armstrong would seem to be natural fits and make the conference stronger.
