Swine flu threat convinces UIL to postpone all high school sporting events

The governing body over Texas high school athletics (and academic events), the UIL, has announced it is postponing all high school sporting events until May 11th because of the swine flu threat.
This is pretty big! That means no baseball, no softball, no regional track meets, no tennis tournaments ... nothing until at least May 11th. Can't be helped, but this really messes with the state track and field meet.
Don't remember this happening in last 30, 40 years.
