Just as the Biloxi Indians were ready to kick off the 2010 football season tonight at South Jones in Ellisville, two students associated with the team have been diagnosed with chicken pox, the school confirmed on its web site.
The school canceled the game against South Jones as a precaution. The school also canceled a volleyball game at Our Lady Academy and a mini-cheerleading clicnic, both of which had been scheduled for Saturday. A junior varsity game scheduled for Monday at George County also is off.
Parents of all Biloxi students are being notified about the two cases today through the school's automated telephone messaging service.
