Although the Alva Ladybugs headed out for Oklahoma City Thursday morning, it was learned in the afternoon that the state basketball playoffs have been postponed. The Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSAA) posted this notice Thursday afternoon at 3:07 p.m.:

“Due to the public health concern, the OSSAA has postponed all the State Basketball Tournaments, all OSSAA Regional Speech Tournaments, and all OSSAA District Music contests for this weekend. No OSSAA Basketball State Tournament or OSSAA playoff-level fine arts contest will be scheduled during spring break (March 15th-March 22nd). We will update the OSSAA website as to when the tournaments will be rescheduled.”
