Up to two parents or guardians per participant family can be allowed to attend Kansas high school winter sports events starting on Thursday, following a vote by the Kansas State High School Activities Association Board of Directors on Tuesday. The vote does not mean every school has to allow spectators into their events, but it does leave it up to each school district. That’s a reversal from what the KSHSAA Board of Directors decided in a Nov. 24 meeting when it voted to not allow any fans during the coronavirus pandemic through at least Jan. 28. “We had great success in the fall, but we weren’t perfect and certainly as a society we aren’t perfect,” said Bill Faflick, the KSHSAA executive director. “There’s significant evidence of continued community spread. Our numbers are worse now than they have been in a long time. It’s really important we never lose sight of that data.
