LHSAA Cancels Remaining Wrestling Regular Season
High school wrestlers in our state were dealt a tough blow this week with the LHSAA cancelling the remainder of their 2020-2021 season.
I m sure you can guess why. Yep, COVID-19 is the culprit once again.
You may remember hearing about a small, but concerning COVID-19 outbreak stemming from a wrestling tournament a couple of weeks ago. In case this is also news ot you, don t worry, I ll fill you in.
Nearly two weeks ago, the Louisiana Classic Wrestling Tournament took place in Gonzales, Louisiana at the Lamar Dixon Expo Center. After that event, over 20 COVID-19 cases were diagnosed directly linked to the tournament. Of course, that number could continue to grow as it has this week.
