Ogden Activities Director Ben Van Wyk put out this statement

“Due to the number of players we have out through the contact tracing process, we have made the decision to cancel this Friday’s football game v Nodaway Valley. With next Friday already being an open date, this provided a two week window where we could let this process work itself out and allow our teams to return to full strength to finish the season. Our HS volleyball program is also in the middle of the lightest part of their schedule. With the number of kids out thru the same contact tracing protocol, we also felt it would be best to postpone competitions for the next 2 weeks and play them later in the season. Both teams will continue practicing with the players that are eligible. Cross country and our MS programs will continue on as scheduled until further notice. ”
