CDO's sports heyday affected
How times change and how population shifts and high school sports are affected: Canyon del Oro, long a power in most sports, is 0-19 in boys basketball this year. It has been almost 40 years since CDO won back-to-back state basketball championships under John Tissaw, in 1977-78. Charter schools, private schools and the growth of nearby Ironwood Ridge and Mountain View high schools have cut into CDO’s sports heyday. But 0-19? Basketball isn’t the only victim. The Dorados went 3-7 in football this year. Wasn’t it just yesterday that Ka’Deem Carey and the Tevis brothers, Aaron and Jared, were going 14-0 and 13-1?
