Area high school basketball schedules altered, with more possible to come

Southwestern Randolph made basketball schedule changes unrelated to the wintry storm that came during the weekend.

Boys’ and girls’ games vs. Eastern Davidson that were scheduled for the beginning of this week were set to have location changes, moving to Southwestern Randolph.

Also, the Cougars added a boys’ games at North Davidson for next Monday. North Davidson became available for an extra game because a would-be third-place game vs. Western Alamance in the Ledford Holiday Tournament was cancelled. That game was nixed because of events following the death of Western Alamance soccer player Eamon Hipps in an automobile wreck, with Western Alamance dropping out of the last day of the tournament.

There won’t be a varsity girls’ game because Southwestern Randolph is at a schedule limit, though there are junior varsity matchups for girls and boys.

** Also prior to the storm, Wheatmore had rescheduled basketball games vs. Chatham Charter to Feb. 9 at Wheatmore.

** Some postponements for this week already had been announced at the beginning of the week.
