Update on Spring 2020 Athletic Season- updated 3/31/2020

Hello Bulldog Nation.  This blog entry includes information on our Spring 2020 Athletic Season as of Thursday, March 26, 2020. UPDATED- 3/31/2020- For the latest info from the MIAA- click here. Other updates to this blog are in red below. 

Today, we are releasing updated 2020 spring sports schedules (with the exception of Unified Track which is almost finalized.)  Below are some bulleted points about the upcoming season.

All of this information is conditional on state, local and MIAA information and is subject to change as Covid19 conditions are ever-changing. 
  • The first day of practices/tryouts will be Monday, May 4th. As that date approaches, we will post sport-specific information on this blog. 
  • The first contests of the season will take place on Monday, May 11th. 
  • There will be a "regular season" which runs through early/mid June. As of today, our schedules are limited to Hockomock League competition. 
  • It is unclear if there will be an MIAA state tournament.  We expect that information to come out on Monday, March 30th. Regardless of whether the MIAA holds a tournament or not, the Hockomock League will be looking to provide a tournament experience for our teams. The MIAA announced at a Board of Directors meeting on Monday that they will plan for a state tournament in mid/late June. 
  • Tennis, Baseball, Softball and Lacrosse schedules will feature home and away contests against our fellow Hockomock Davenport schools. 
  • The Track Schedule will include dual and tri-meets and a Hock Championship. 
  • As mentioned above, Unified Track schedule will be released shortly- expected later this week. 
  • All CHS deadlines for participation and user fees for the spring season are currently on hold. We will announce updates around this as April progresses. 
  • Physical Exams on file in the Athletic Office that were conducted and dated SINCE 2/13/19 will meet the physical exam requirement for this spring. 
Thank you all for your continued patience.  I'm so looking forward to being back out there on our fields!  In the meantime, continue to find ways to grow.

Remember- "Champions train when nobody is watching."
