The University Interscholastic League has suspended all athletic activity throughout Texas until May 11 because of the swine flu outbreak.

"The health and safety of our student activity participants is of the utmost importance," UIL executive director Charles Breithaupt said in a statement.

"Taking every possible precaution to prevent the further spreading of this disease is an important contribution to the welfare of our great state, and altering the schedule of our events is a way to keep our participants safe."
