With their respective schedules already disrupted multiple times because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Iola High’s boys and girls basketball teams are now dealing with Mother Nature.
The onset of the worst winter snap of the season forced school officials to cancel Friday’s IHS basketball games at Anderson County.
The Fillies now are slated to play at Anderson County Feb. 20, while the Mustangs will travel to Anderson County Feb. 22.
The Fillies also will return to the court Monday evening at home against Wellsville, weather permitting.
Both the boys and girls will play Tuesday at home against Osawatomie for Senior Night.
The IHS squads will split up on Thursday, with the Fillies traveling to Central Heights to make up a game postponed from December. The Mustangs, meanwhile, will host Chanute in a game called off in January.
Matt Baumwart, athletics director at IHS, also announced this week that the Fillies’ scheduled makeup game at Pittsburg’s St. Mary’s-Golgan High has been canceled and will not be rescheduled.
