Indians adjust to new 'pods' in Wamac

The Marion Indians are members of the West Division in the Wamac Conference, but they'll play two-thirds of their boys basketball games against teams from the East Division this year.

It's a temporary arrangement as the venerable league deals with having only 15 members instead of 16. Waterloo Columbus left the Wamac after the 2012-13 school year to join the NICL, so Wamac officials decided to split the 15 remaining schools into three "pods" of five teams apiece.

Marion was placed in the same "pod" with Mount Vernon, Solon, Maquoketa and DeWitt Central and will play those teams twice apiece for eight conference games. The Indians will have single meetings with the 10 teams in the other "pods" for a total of 18 league contests.
