Winter high school sports to go on as scheduled

Posted Nov 24, 2020 10:03 PM

By a vote of 53-22, the Kansas State High School Activities Association Board of Directors voted to allow sports competition in Kansas to start as scheduled in December. The KSHSAA Executive Board had voted unanimously last week to delay the start of winter sports until January 15.

The board vote Tuesday means that sports will begin as scheduled on December 1. There will be no competition from December 23 to January 8.

Fans will not be allowed at any competition until January 28, a key provision in allowing the vote to allow winter sports to begin on time be so lopsided.

Eagle Radio in Great Bend will continue to broadcast live basketball events for Great Bend High School, Hoisington High School and Larned High School.
