We are a week away from the start of a condensed season for high-risk winter sports in Section II. While bowling & men's swimming & diving are underway, basketball, wrestling, and hockey will begin practices & games next week. The season will be from February 1-March 13, so the season will be 6 weeks, with a 1 week overlap with "Fall II", which begins the week of March 1.
On Section II Athletics' Twitter page, users were uncertain about sectionals, but it was made clear that there would be no sectional or any other post-season competition this year.
Here's the official announcement:
Spring sports, such as baseball, lacrosse, outdoor track, and men's tennis, will start in May, and overlap into exam season, assuming Regents exams will be given this year, and graduation. Since college baseball continues past commencement, usually in May, leading to the College World Series in June, sports fans should be used to that. And, yeah, there's a mask mandate in place. As it should be. Not just for fans, but athletes & coaches, too.
Let the games begin!
