Some states have opted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/florida-high-school-athletic-association-votes-to-start-fall-sports-july-27-swim-season-is-on\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">proceed with their seasons<\/a>, while others have pushed back starting dates or moved fall sports to another point on the calendar. On Tuesday, the Montgomery County Public Schools (Md.) made a big move concerning scholastic sports.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than cancel only fall sports due to the COVID-19 situation, MCPS announced the cancellation of fall and winter high school sports for its 25 high schools. The cancellation includes the swimming season. Whether a spring season is played will be decided at a later date. The move by Maryland\u2019s largest school district came as a surprise since it included the cancellation of winter sports in July, instead of reassessing the situation in, say, October. Decision regarding sports in Maryland have been left up to individual school districts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile we are deeply saddened by the cancellation of interscholastic athletics during this time, we know that the number one priority for everyone is the health and safety of our students and staff,\u201d said <strong>Jeffrey Sullivan<\/strong>, the MCPS Director of Athletics, in a statement. \u201cIn this regard, we appreciate the ongoing efforts of student-athletes, coaches, athletics specialists, athletics coordinators, and all stakeholders across our program to embrace and champion physical distancing and safe practices. We are inspired by your acts of generosity, kindness, and compassion and continue to be inspired by your messages of hope.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The full statement can be seen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org\/uploadedFiles\/departments\/athletics\/covid\/COVID-MCPS_Statement_Cancellation_July_17.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Not surprising, the decision by the MCPS generated pushback, the most notable argument stating that it was unnecessary to cancel the winter sports season at this time. Social media response to the decision included comments suggesting that a decision on winter athletics should have come closer to the season, when the situation surrounding COVID-19 may have changed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past few weeks, a variety of decisions have come down regarding upcoming high school sports season across the country during the COVID-19 pandemic.
