The WIAA Board of Control has voted to cancel 2020 the regular season & tournaments. However, in efforts to provide an opportunity for spring teams to practice and compete, the Board also granted 30 days for practice and competition over the summer to include seniors.

Acclimatization rules must still be followed & contact must follow the governor's orders. With the current order in place, no interscholastic athletics may take place until after June 30.

Spring sport coaches can continue with virtual coaching until the conclusion of the respective state tournament's initially scheduled dates.

More details to come.

We ask for your help in guiding our student athletes through a terribly difficult situation. Our "normal" season is officially over. We are going to need your help looking for signs that these students need help. We have resources to share for mental health. It is likely many of our players, coaches, and families will be feeling anxiety, hopelessness, depression, sadness, anger, and many other feelings. If it gets bad please don't hesitate to ask for help or school supports. This is bad for all students but will especially hit the athletes as they have a great connection to each other and will undoubtedly be missing the camaraderie.  We will be moving forward and continue to try and give them the best experience possible. The "normal" season may be over, but we don't plan on stopping our virtual coaching, connecting, and support until we can be back together to play again.
