OKLAHOMA CITY -- At a meeting of the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association Tuesday, the board decided to not regulate practice times as schools begin practices.

Many schools are resorting to longer practices earlier or later in the day, rather than traditional two-a-day practices because of the high temperatures.

As practices begin, Oklahoma Sports will cover two practices a day, providing coverage of more than 40 schools from the Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas.
