The boys’ basketball playoff game between Central and Onalaska is still on for tonight, but the coronavirus threat has led to some changes.

The 7 p.m. game will be at Logan High, instead of Mitchell Hall at UW-L.

And the La Crosse School District says there’s an “administrative entry list” which will be used to limit who gets into the contest.

The crowd at Logan will be limited to 250 people.

WKTY Radio will still air the Central-Onalaska game, and arrangements for having a video stream of the game are still being made.

Similar crowd restrictions are being made at the Western Tech women’s playoff game tonight against Hostos Community College of New York.

Spectators for the game, being played at Rock Valley College in Rockford, will be limited to athletes, coaches, and other “essential personnel.”
