Overview: In a recent meeting of the Leroy-Ostrander School Board, attention was given to the potential shift of the school’s football program from an 8-man to an 11-man format, driven by increased student enrollment. This discussion emerged as a focal point, with the principal noting that the school currently enrolls five or six students over the limit for 8-man football. This situation has prompted an appeal process, with a decision expected soon. The principal expressed uncertainty about the outcome, stating, “as of today we are 11-man hoping to stay down,” reflecting the broader trend of schools adjusting their sports programs in response to enrollment changes.
