A unanimous vote to allow the SCHSL staff the authority to make decisions regarding an extension of the fall sports season, if needed due to inclement weather passed.<\/p>\n At the moment, there are no changes to the sports season calendar. All schedules will remain as scheduled until further notice. The schools within the boundaries of the mandatory evacuation should assess damages, if any, prior to making any decisions on make-up games.<\/p>\n Commissioner Jerome Singleton states, \u201cI wholeheartedly thank our membership for putting safety first in the districts and schools by following the Governor\u2019s order and EMS recommendations to this point.\u00a0 We will continue to monitor Hurricane Dorian and the expected trajectory in the coming days. Having our member schools and their communities out of harm\u2019s way is at the forefront of the league\u2019s concern.\u201d<\/p>\n We have not yet decided on any mandated statewide schedule changes. It is our intention to have our athletic departments to follow the instructions of state officials, their local EMS professionals and school administration-in that order.\u00a0 At this moment, the safety of our students and personnel, their families and all SC citizens is most important. Once the storm passes, we can evaluate the impact it has on our member schools and communities, assess the aftermath and explore potential options for a return to normalcy.<\/p>\n The League Office will continue to monitor weather updates and make any adjustments as necessary. Please do not hesitate to contact us at 803.798.0120 for clarification or questions you may have. Stay tuned to the SCHSL website and social media platforms for updates. \u00a0Again, the membership\u2019s mindset to support one another is much appreciated and always a predominant facet to staying the course back to normalcy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tammie Newman, Director of Communications\/Public Relations\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0tnewman@archive.schsl.org\u00a0 \/\u00a0 803.896.0417 For Immediate Release \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Wednesday, September 4, 2019 \u00a0The SCHSL Executive Committee met via conference call this morning to discuss Hurricane Dorian and the possibility of an altered schedule for various sports this fall.
