News broke on Sunday afternoon that the Grand Island Football team was in quarantine through Aug 19th and could not begin workouts until Aug 24th.
Grand Island superintendent Tawana Grover made the announcement via a letter sent to all the families in the school district.
“Two members of the GISH football staff are quarantined due to COVID-19,’’ she said. “One has been confirmed COVID-19 positive and another is quarantined at this time following CDHD and GIPS protocols. The quarantine process is being practiced as a precaution to the health, safety and well-being of our student-athletes and coaches.”
So far this announcement only affects one game for the Islanders, they will look to reschedule the season opener against Kearney. That game was to be played on Aug 28th in Grand Island.
