Everyone in the Northwest 2B/1B League is playing basketball.
At least that’s the plan as of April 27.
Here in the Age of Coronavirus, everything could be changed by April 28, of course.
But, for now, the news is good, as Friday Harbor High School, which completely opted out of playing fall sports after a surge in positive Covid cases, announced Tuesday it intends to return to competition as its students go back to in-person education.
“With the return of students to school on Monday, May 3rd, sports season three (winter) has also been approved to begin,” said Friday Harbor Athletic Director Brock Hauck.
“Girls and boys basketball practices will start on Monday, May 3rd,” he added. “A decision on the wrestling season is still to be determined.”
Since Coupeville doesn’t have a wrestling program, the last part of that statement has little impact on the Wolves.
But the first half is a bonus, as it suggests (for the moment, at least) that CHS will have a full (by pandemic season standards) 12-game basketball schedule.
Current plans call for the final season of the 2020-2021 school year to start May 3, with basketball games running May 18-June 17.
