All high school sports postponed through Saturday
All high school sports in Suffolk County have been postponed through Saturday — including football playoffs that were scheduled to begin Friday night, Section XI announced Thursday morning.
Exact dates for games are still to be determined and more information will be available Friday.
Many schools across the county are closed through the end of the week, making it nearly impossible to coordinate scheduling of any games. The first playoff games were originally to begin last Monday with field hockey. Riverhead was scheduled to play at Centereach as Hurricane Sandy pounded the east coast.
The cross country county championship originally scheduled for Friday may have to be moved to a different location. Sunken Meadow State Park may not be accessible due to many down trees, according to an e-mail sent by Tony Toro, the cross country girls coordinator. Section XI will determine the date and location.
