No school for a week for Kent<\/a> and Tahoma<\/a> students also meant cancellation of a number of sporting events.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Kent\u2019s four high schools and Tahoma High are all part of the South Puget Sound League 4A North Division.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

As everyone digs out from the storm that hit last week, coaches and athletic directors spent Monday sorting out when they would make up boys and girls basketball, boys swim and dive, gymnastics and wrestling events canceled last week.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Dave Lutes, athletic director for the Kent School District, wrote in an email interview on Sunday that decisions would be made early in the week.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cThe individual league sport commissioner might set out a recommended date for blocks of games to be re-scheduled,\u201d Lutes wrote. \u201cHowever, typically the league allows the individual schools to communicate and determine final decisions based on facility availability and other respective schedule factors.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Lutes said his office would re-post revised schedules on the SPSL (www.spsl.org) and Kent School District (www.kent.k12.wa.us) websites as information became available.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tony Davis, athletic director for Tahoma High, wrote in an email on Jan. 20 that the Bears basketball games against Thomas Jefferson that were canceled on Jan. 20 will instead be played on Saturday, Feb. 4.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tahoma\u2019s wrestling squad rescheduled its double dual with Mount Rainier and Auburn Riverside for Monday while its Mat Classic tournament planned for Jan. 21 was canceled.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

For boys swim and dive, the SPSL non-qualifier meet set for Jan. 21 was rescheduled for Thursday while the league dual meets planned for last week would be rescheduled for this week.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In addition, Lutes wrote in an email on Monday, basketball games that were postponed on Jan. 17 will be played on Wednesday, Feb. 1, while games involving Kent schools planned for Tuesday night will be played on Monday, Feb. 6 with Feb. 7 reserved for other make up games as necessary and Feb. 8 set for division tiebreaker games.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Basketball teams have five games left on the regular season schedule in addition to the one or two from last week which need to be made up.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Gymnastics and wrestling teams had one league meet remaining in addition to the meet that needed to be made up.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Boys swim and dive teams had one regular season meet to make up before the SPSL Championship meet set for this Saturday at Rogers High in Puyallup.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
