theguru Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 Nothing surprises me in Boone County. According to my coach he called his AD about the Governor rumor and the AD of this Boone County school called the KHSAA and reported back that the KHSAA told him it was not the Governor that canceled practice, it was the KHSAA. The point being the AD is full of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THUNDERBIRDS Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Highlands was having practice this morning. I think they go from 7 to 9:00-9:30 or something. Family Tradition could probably pinpoint it a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kissinger Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I believe the superintendent from Boone County was down in Frankfort at a conference and heard the rumor from the governor. He immediately called the coaches at Conner and Boone and got them off the field. There was not, nor never has been in last many years, any statewide cancellation. It seems like the folks that cover the practices for some of those schools from a sports medicine standpoint, took a misconstrued rumor from a superintendent and then called all of the other trainers and had them cancel. No directive was ever issued this week from the Governor or the KHSAA about practices. Use the heat index system as written, prescribed and reminded by KHSAA last week via email to all of us, and that is excellent protection. Simply put, this one was caused by a well-intentioned but overly involved trainer taking 2 and 2, adding it up, and getting 17. From what I hear, this over involvement may be extended to other sports now and causing issues. Some of the hottest places in this state right now are in gyms where the A/C isn't turned on (i.e. volleyball). Take the readings every thirty minutes as prescribed. Our folks insist on it, and it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldonetechnique Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Franklin County did not practice the heat INDEX was 107 and 105 at 6:00 PM Since school had started they just lifted, had walk throughs and meetings. The principal cancelled all outdoor activities. Tonight could possible be the same deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SportNut Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I believe Raceland has been going late, not beginning until around 7:30pm. They can not go early because school has already started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Gap Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Mercer had to go in the gym last nite from 7:00-8:00. The heat index out on the field was between 109 and 114, depending on where you were. Inside the practice field of the Indoor facility the heat index was 111!!
