Start of high-risk winter sports has been delayed

Originally slated to begin practicing on Nov. 30, high-risk winter sports such as basketball, ice hockey, and wrestling will be moved to Jan. 4. Low-risk sports such as indoor track, bowling, and swimming and diving will still begin practicing on the 30. Contests can begin for the low-risk sports once student-athletes have participated in the required number of practices. In a statement, New York State Public High School Athletic Association Executive Director Dr.Robert Zayas said, “We continue to make these types of decisions based upon readily available information and communication with state officials.”
