All spring school sports canceled

The Wyoming High School Activities Association (WHSAA) Board of Directors announces the canceling of all spring sports.

“Due to the continuing influence of COVID-19, we are not able to predict when it will be safe to resume spring sports, nor are we able to assure if any of our communities would be able to host any of our events,” according to the board press release.

The WHSAA Board of Directors promotes the benefits of participating in education-based activities.

They are understanding of the overwhelming disappointment this decision is for student athletes, especially our seniors.

“As we all continue to adapt to the pandemic, academics need to be the focus of our students and schools to be able to complete a successful school year,” added the board.

They reminded the public that their highest priority, as always, is ensuring the health and safety of students, schools and communities during this challenging time.

The board press release said, “We must be a responsible organization and we look forward to the day when our students are again participating in education-based activities,”
