Urbana H.S. makes temporary spectator policy change for basketball games

The Urbana High School Athletic Department announced on Wednesday restricted fan capacity for the next two home boys basketball games due to the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Champaign County.

This Friday's game against Peoria Notre Dame and next Tuesday's contest against Normal West, tickets will not be available to the general public.

Urbana athletes and players from visiting teams will be able to invite four guests according a post made on the #116 Twitter feed.

Both varsity games, as well as JV and freshman contests, are schedule for broadcast on the NFHS Network.

14-team Christie Clinic Shootout this Saturday at SJO

This Saturday, St. Joseph-Ogden High School will host the Christie Clinic Shootout at the high school. Admission to the event is just $5.00.

"We are really excited about this event," says St. Joseph-Ogden Athletic Director Justin Franzen. "This will be a great day to watch basketball at St. Joseph-Ogden High School."

There will be seven varsity basketball games in the Main Gym at the high school and seven junior varsity contests in the school's practice gym starting at 11am.

The final varsity contest of the day will pit SJO vs Tuscola. Prep basketball fans will have a chance to see the Spartans' heavily recruited junior Ty Pence and Tuscola point guard and Loyola commit Jalen Quinn, who has more than 1,600 career points with the Warriors. Pence cleared the 1K mark last month at the State Farm Classic where the Spartan basketball team finished in 4th place.

Below are the schedule and times for Saturday games.
