Friday’s weather-related athletics updates

Because of the lingering effects of Wednesday night’s snowfall, all athletic events in Jasper County scheduled for Friday have been postponed.

Tonight’s slate included boys and girls basketball games in-county for Newton, Prairie City-Monroe, Collins-Maxwell-Baxter and Colfax-Mingo, while Lynnville-Sully was scheduled to be on the road.

Originally scheduled for tonight, Newton’s basketball games against Knoxville and the ceremony for the 1962-63 Newton state basketball champions have been rescheduled for Feb. 7 with the same time schedule as originally planned. Newton’s postponed Thursday basketball games against Bondurant-Farrar have been rescheduled for Jan. 17.
