Today, LSU is not the only stadium that will be allowed only 25 percent seating capacity in its football stadium. That rule also also applies for high school stadiums in Louisiana.
Gov. John Bel Edwards last week said that football stadiums, high school and college, will only be able to operate at 25 percent capacity when the regular season begins in October.
With the season less than 20 days away, coaches, principals and athletic directors are scrambling to figure out what to do and how to make it work.

The Abbeville Lady Wildcats’ volleyball team opened the 2020 season in front of no fans or students cheering. Instead, the Abbeville gym had players, managers, two referees, Principal Brett Darby, coaches and the clock operator.

For the Lady Wildcats, Thursday’s game was a season-opener against West St. Mary. Abbeville had only a handful of practices leading up to Thursday’s match.

Some would say the offensive line’s left tackle is one of the most important positions on the field. Most coaches place their best and smartest lineman at that position.
Vermilion Catholic head coach Broc Prejean is not about to buck the football system. In his first year at the school, he inherited an offensive line with only one returning starter. That one person is senior Jude Roger. Roger played right guard last year.
