For at least thinking about the student athlete and at least trying to work it out for these kids. God Bless all of y’all involved!! Great news to at least not make a quick decision and wait and see what happens.

Awesome news, thank you TSSAA for doing the right thing.

Glad to see the TSSAA at least leave the door open on finishing the tourney. If at all possible these teams deserve the opportunity to finish what they started. Hope it works out for these student athletes.

This was the right thing too do.  Thanks TSSAA!

False hope. TSSAA keeps the natives from going restless by giving them hope that will more than likely not happen. The state of Kansas just canceled in person school the rest of the year. Many other states will follow.

I think TSSAA is assuming an 8 week shutdown based on the meeting. I know what your saying. Never know. Only the man upstairs knows how this virus will effect our area. I pray that he rebukes it and stops it.

Yes more to follow. Sadly this will go on longer than 8 weeks. TSSAA needs to stop giving false hopes.

Never know what will happen when the weather breaks and the birds start chirping. What is it hurting delaying the decision? Nothing. They would look bad if they cancelled it and this stuff quitens down.

Agree,proper response from TSSAA, and advisement from the lawyers. School will soon be cancelled or no way they go back by first of April, this pandemic has not peaked yet,until downward trend it could be months.

It’s hurting these parents by giving them false hopes that their kids will play. Right now TSSAA should be more concerned if they are having Fall sports at this point.

Sounds like it will take about two weeks to play the girls and boys basketball and the Spring Fling. These guys know what they are doing. April and May temperatures are in the 80’s a lot. I do realize it is a bad disease, but to much uncertainty to cancel a tournament when they have access to facilities obviously or they wouldn’t entertain the idea.
