After the University of Denver informed the Colorado High School
Activities Association late Thursday that it could no longer host the state's 3A
tournament, the CHSAA announced the cancellation of the rest of its
basketball tournament.
"With uncertainty at all additional sites,
including a state of emergency declaration by the City of Denver, the
difficult decision has been made to cancel the remainder of all state
basketball tournaments in all classes," the CHSAA said via a release.
