Fall sports athletes in Wisconsin got a dose of optimism this week.

In an interview on WGBA-26, WIAA Deputy Director Wade Labecki said the organization is moving ahead with plans to begin fall sports on time.  That would put football players getting back onto the field on August 4th. Cross country, volleyball and soccer would start on August 17th and tennis, swimming and golf on August 11th,  The WIAA is working with public health officials and with the everchanging situation surrounding COVID-19, Labecki admits the fall sports season is still up in the air.
