A little bit of juggling in Zero Week football....

Cokeville had a game scheduled with Rich County, Utah, for Zero Week, one of three games that was supposed to count in the WHSAA's power ratings. However, that game has been canceled by the schools "for various reasons," the WHSAA's Trevor Wilson said.

Instead, Cokeville will only have seven games that will count in the power ratings. The eighth week will be filled by a game with the Evanston JV and Zero Week for Cokeville will be a scrimmage game with Wind River.

Mountain View and Rich County will play each other in Zero Week, but that won't count in the power ratings.

Also....

The WHSAA granted Laramie special permission for Laramie to play its Zero Week game against Steamboat Springs, Colo., on a Friday night. Since the WHSAA requires players to participate in 10 practices before the first contest, all Zero Week contests have been played on Saturdays. Laramie will be exempt from that this year; however, Wilson said Laramie's players still must participate in 10 practices before the first contest (i.e. Laramie will have to practice on Saturday or Sunday the first week).

Laramie's game and Saratoga's Saturday game with West Grand, Colo., are the only two Zero Week games that will count toward the WHSAA's power rating.
