UW-Oshkosh Announces Masking At February Home Athletic Events
Due to the existing COVID-19 conditions in the Oshkosh community and the state of Wisconsin, masks will be required to be worn at all home UW-Oshkosh athletic events in the month of February.
The mask requirement begins Wednesday (Feb. 2) when the nationally ranked UW-Oshkosh men's basketball team hosts UW-Platteville at 7 p.m. in Kolf Sports Center.
"UW-Oshkosh takes this proactive measure to protect the health and safety of our student-athletes, coaches, event staff and spectators," said UW-Oshkosh Director of Athletics Darryl Sims. "As we continue to monitor COVID-19 cases, particularly the Omicron variant, our current outlook warrants this protective step. I do want to thank everyone in advance for their understanding and support."
Fans are encouraged to bring their own mask to Albee Hall and Kolf Sports Center as a limited number of masks will be furnished to spectators.
