CHARLOTTESVILLE (WINA) – Albemarle High School’s junior varsity football game against Charlottesville High School Wednesday night was cancelled due to an incident that involved “a few members” of the Patriots’ team. A letter sent to parents by Principal Darah Bonham says “we are still learning all of the details, and we engaged the services of the police department to assist us in our investigation”.

He notes disciplinary measures have been implemented “in some instances”… but it was “not advisable” to play the game nor conduct any practices.

An investigation involving the school system and Albermarle Police continues.

The decision does not impact Saturday’s homecoming game at noon against CHS.
