Belton-Honea Path High School has canceled it's varsity and JV football games against Greer this week due to COVID-19 cases within both programs.
Both the JV game, scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 1, and the varsity game on Friday, Oct. 2 were called off due to an "abundance of caution and for the safety of both our community and the Greer community," according to a press release from Lester McCall, the Director of Human Resources in Anderson School District Two.
"We have recent positive cases on both the JV and Varsity teams, and we have additional participants that have exhibited symptoms and are awaiting test results," McCall said.
Once the results of those tests are determined, the school will decide on next steps while following "all DHEC and South Carolina High School League guidelines accordingly."
