Encouraged there has not been an outright cancellation of the spring sports season, Clinton High School Athletic Director Matt Koeppel says he is simply going a day at a time right now.

Koeppel is not getting ahead of himself worrying about if there will be a spring sports season or not and remains optimistic the IHSA continues to take a wait-and-see approach as well.

When the news came down about the coronavirus outbreak suspending the sports season, Koeppel believes it wasn't that much of a surprise to his coaches or athletes as most had been tracking the situation via social media.

According to Koeppel, Clinton School facilities are closed at this time and they continue to follow the lead of the state leaders. He hopes they can soon get their athletes back together to get something out of the spring sports season.
