Editor’s note: Allentown High School was forced to close on Jan. 21 because of a COVID-19 outbreak in the school. In-person instruction is scheduled to resume on Feb. 3. All current winter sports are on pause until that date. This article was written as the outbreak occurred.
The players on the Allentown High School girls basketball team waited with all of the other high school basketball players in the state during the fall to see what New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association administrators would choose to do with the 2020-21 season in the face of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
