Sports games, practices and events cancelled after virus outbreak

DAVENPORT – Several games, matches, meets and practices were cancelled here and in Reardan this week after COVID-19 outbreaks within both districts.

Two of Davenport’s eight positive student tests were within the cross country and soccer teams. Cross country’s two qualifiers for the District 7 title meet at Asotin won’t be able to race.

Football seeding games, including Reardan at Colfax and Davenport vs. Lind-Ritzville/Sprague, were off. A junior high football game in Davenport was also cancelled.

A volleyball match between Davenport and Reardan scheduled for March 29 was cancelled.

All “fall sports,” or “Season 1 sports,” are now finished in both school districts.

Spring sports practices were scheduled to begin March 29, but were also postponed. Both districts won’t hold practices next week during spring break.

The Times will continue to provide updates on the virus outbreak and its impacts on athletics as the situation develops.
