That should be determined during a Section VI Athletic Council meeting Wednesday with a decision announced by Thursday, according to Section VI Executive Committee President Brett Banker.

The Section VI Executive Committee met last Friday and announced a post-card ballot would be sent to all member schools regarding the reopening plan with the results to be reviewed during a portion of Wednesday’s meeting.

Start options are believed to be this Monday; Sept. 28; or other – which likely would be the fall season II option in March.

The early returns seem interesting.

“Based on the results of the survey that the section sent to Erie 1 superintendents, I am cautiously optimistic,” said Banker, who is also the longtime Ken-Ton Schools’ athletic director. “That optimism comes from a survey return rate of over 85% and with 75% of those districts expressing their readiness to start in September.”

Last month, Gov. Andrew Cuomo gave high school sports the green light to return Sept. 21 (nearly a month later than the fall season’s original start date).
