4B | DECEMBER 30, 2021 | COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL OSAA ninth through elev- enth-grade enrollment, three-year student av- erage, and a socio-eco- nomic factor that was tied into free/reduced lunches in schools. All three were put into a formula to help shape the way the leagues were decided. After the end of the spring season, Cottage Grove will see Elmi- ra and Siuslaw depart from the Sky-Em as both school’s transition to 3A.

The Myrtle Point Bobcats will be leaving the 2A Sunset conference to join the Skyline league that will now consist of 13 total schools going into the fall of 2022.
