SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – The South Dakota High School Baseball Association followed the lead of the South Dakota High School Activities Association on Tuesday, announcing that it had cancelled its 2020 season. When the SDHSAA suspended activities in March due to COVID-19 concerns, the SDHSBA announced that it would follow the SDHSAA decisions on spring sports. With South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem keeping schools closed for the remainder of the academic year, the SDHSAA shuttered its 2019-20 seasons. In another annoucement on Tuesday, the American Legion cancelled its 2020 national tournaments, as well as its eight regional tournaments. The Central Plains Regional was to be held Aug. 5-9 at Sioux Falls Stadium. It also suspended the awarding of American Legion baseball scholarships for 2020.
