The Iroquois School Board has partially reinstated the modified sports program, which was cut to trim the 2011-12 budget, and agreed to allow booster clubs to fund the rest. Superintendent Bruce Fraser said on Wednesday that Duke Ziegler, athletic director, had re-examined his budget and found $34,000 -- enough to fund five of the nine modified programs. It will ensure the operation of girls volleyball, field hockey, lacrosse and basketball, as well as boy's basketball and lacrosse.
