Smith done at McAuley

PORTLAND—Catherine McAuley High School girls' varsity basketball coach Wil Smith has stepped down after four seasons. Smith, who was involved with the Lions program for nearly a decade, felt the timing was right and stressed the desire to spend more time with family. "It was just time," he said. "I've been there nine years. It was time to think about where the program was and is, my and my family's future. The program's in a good place. Ready to compete for a championship. It's best for all parties for me to resign at this time."
