The University Interscholastic League (UIL) released a modified activities calendar for the 2020-21 school year on Tuesday, setting new dates for practices, games and championships for both San Marcos and other schools in the state.
"Our goal in releasing this plan is to provide a path forward for Texas students and schools," said UIL Executive Director Dr. Charles Breithaupt. "While understanding situations change and there will likely be interruptions that will require flexibility and patience, we are hopeful this plan allows students to participate in the education-based activities they love in a way that prioritizes safety and mitigates risk of COVID-19 spread."
The Rattlers football team’s preseason training camp start date has been moved from Aug. 3 to Sept. 7. The 2020 regular season is now scheduled to kick off on Sept. 24 and will run through Dec. 5. The UIL 5A and 6A championship games will be conducted in January 2021, with exact dates to be announced later.
