The group in charge of high school sports met Friday in an emergency session after Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf said school and youth sports should be postponed until Jan. 1 because of COVID-19. The Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association Board of Directors has started to reevaluate the plans it had in place, but in a statement Friday afternoon said, it believes delaying sports will have a “potential negative impact on the students’ physical, social, emotional and mental health.” In response to Wolf’s announcement on Thursday, the PIAA said: “We are tremendously disappointed in this decision. Our member schools have worked diligently to develop health and safety plans to allow students the safe return to interscholastic athletics.” The PIAA made a motion during its Friday meeting to postpone all fall sports for two weeks. Board members say they will reconvene on August 21st, but between now and then, voluntary workouts, per the Governor’s guidance for all sports, and with local approval, may continue.
