NA Committee OKs Golf, Cross Country for Fall

 The School Committee on Tuesday voted to move football and soccer to the so-called "Fall II" and to allow golf and cross country to go ahead with precautions.

The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association last week released final guides for fall high school sports in light of the novel coronavirus pandemic. The concept of a Fall II had been approved earlier for football and other high contact sports to be played  between February and April.

He also requested approval for hosting a few practices a week of football and soccer that would follow social distancing guides set by the state. This was also approved.

Golf is run as a co-op with Hoosac Valley High School and cross country with McCann Technical, with Drury High School as the guest school for both.

As for football and soccer, the MIAA is allowing practice out of season.
