High school winter sports will start on time in Kansas. But they’ll start without fans until nearly February. A proposal to delay the high school basketball, wrestling, bowling and boys swimming and diving seasons by the Kansas State High School Activities Association amid the COVID-19 pandemic was struck down on Tuesday. The association’s Board of Directors voted to start the season on time by a 53-22 vote. “I’m pleased that those learning opportunities will be part of (student-athletes’) reality,” KSHSAA Executive Director Bill Faflick said. “We’re working towards a healthier Kansas. We need to make sure that those mitigation protocols are followed through with fidelity.”
