Salina South High School's football game with Derby High School will not be played this evening as Derby has suspended all football-related activities because of COVID-19.
According to a post on the Derby Public Schools Facebook page, "Due to an increase in additional positive cases of COVID-19 at Derby High School, Derby Public Schools is suspending all football-related activities at Derby High School. This is following the Sedgwick County Health Department’s strong recommendation of suspending all football-related activities for the immediate future while close contact tracing and necessary next steps are completed. Tonight’s Homecoming festivities have been canceled and will be rescheduled. This is a joint decision with Salina Public Schools. A date has not been determined at this point when football may resume. If you have already purchased tickets, they may be used at a future date. At this time, Derby High School has eight positive cases related to football."
