Two "frequently asked questions" regarding COVID protocols:
1. Do athletes have to mask? ANSWER: the "home rules" are in effect. If it is a home game, they do not. If they are at an away game at a school that requires masking, then they must wear a mask.
2. Do students and drivers still have to mask on the bus? ANSWER: Yes. This is a federal rule, not a state rule.
