UPDATE 10/21/2020
With the current status of our schools starting remotely and
the State recommending that extra-curricular activities being postponed within
our county’s current moderate-risk designation, the 2A Evergreen Conference has
made the decision to move Season 1 athletics (Cross-Country and Boys Golf) to
Season 3. With this move, the current WIAA High School Seasons will look as
follows:
Season 1 – Postponed to Season 3
Season 2 – First Practice 12/28– Boys & Girls
Basketball, Girls Bowling, Wrestling
Season 3 – First Practice 3/1 – Football (1st practice
2/17), Volleyball, Girls Soccer, Cross Country, Boys Golf
Season 4 – First Practice 4/26 – Fastpitch, Baseball, Track,
Girls Golf, Boys Soccer
Each sport season will be reduced to 70%. An example of this
is basketball normally is allowed to play 20 regular season games, they will be
allowed to play 14 regular season games under this model.
I will keep you updated as more information comes in.
