From the VHSL: Due to the rapidly changing landscape regarding COVID-19, the VHSL Basketball Tournament is announcing that all games for Friday and Saturday will be played with only direct family members in the stands from both teams due to the threat of the novel coronavirus. [Thursday’s] schedule will go as planned. Each participating school will submit a list of immediate family members to the VHSL and only those will be permitted to enter the Siegel Center.
