UW-Madison is off the table for prep postseasons

What postseason contests look like for fall high school sports and whether any will be held remains in question due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
But one thing is for sure. The University of Wisconsin-Madison facilities won’t be used, according to a statement from the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association.
Events impacted include the state girls’ golf championship at University Ridge on Oct. 12 to 13, the state girls’ individual and team tennis tournaments at Nielsen Tennis Stadium on Oct. 15 to 17 and Oct. 23 to 24, respectively, and the state girls’ swimming and diving championships on Nov. 13 to 14, formerly held at the UW Natatorium with plans to move to the Nicholas Recreation Center when completed.
The WIAA executive staff is in the process of identifying prospective alternate locations and venues for the three state events.
The WIAA Board of Control had already ruled out holding football title games at Camp Randall Stadium this year. It approved a reduced, 11-week season in July.
“Since July, we’ve been talking with the Board of Control, our members and UW Athletic Department personnel, and we understand our need to take a new and different approach to this year’s events,” WIAA Executive Director Dave Anderson said in the statement. “Through our great relationship with the UW, we share the hope and look forward to more normal times.”
John Horn, chief of staff to vice chancellor for finance and administration at UW, expressed similar sentiments.
“We regret, given the situation here in Dane County related to Covid-19, it will not be feasible to host the WIAA state tournaments this fall,” Horn said. “We look forward to when the conditions of the pandemic improves and Dane County and campus policies change to allow larger, non-essential events.”
