LINTON – Linton athletics announced Monday night that masks will be required for indoor sports events starting with Linton’s volleyball game Tuesday. The mask mandate does not include outdoor sporting events like football.

Cases of COVID-19 are up in Indiana schools as over 5,500 new student positive cases were reported last week on the Indiana COVID-19 Dashboard. It is the highest number of students testing positive for COVID in a week since the pandemic began.

Linton has two indoor events this week in girls volleyball as Linton hosts Clay City Tuesday followed by Northview on Thursday.
