Meanwhile in MN - with more confirmed cases, their games carry on.
Tremendously sad.

I have so many questions on how we got here, we could go over the stats but that's not necessary today... I have the same sentiment as Brady today.

Facebook popped up a memory from three years ago today. Mechancisburg won it's first State Team Championship. Kaleb Romero won title #4. Tanner Smith and Alex Rhine won title #1. Such a great day. Today, not so much.

I'm hearing the athletes were notified that NCAA are not happening. Can not confirm this yet.

Did Gov. Dewine say non-spectator sports could continue(do parents and family count as spectators) as scheduled? Why release a statement before the Gov press conference, panic, chaos, and confusion within the decision-making process doesn't give me confidence in leadership. How do you not coordinate information? OHSAA took down comments questioning the decision from their accounts. I have more questions than answers today mixed with disappointment.

I know this will result in loss of life and a lot more important issues beyond sports but I really feel bad for guys like Kolin Moore and Luke Pletcher. Hard to believe we'll never see these guys compete again in a Buckeye singlet.

I felt the same. Probably a needed course of action but unfortunate for many nonetheless.

I would have thought, as a last resort, they would have gone ahead with no fans, and test each of the athletes/coaches for the virus prior to the start. Sad ending to the season.

These guys would have jumped at the chance to compete this way. Heck, I'd bet good $ they'd have jumped at the chance to compete at 10 different locations with one weight per location - with only them and their coaches there.
I know "devastated" is a good description of how guys I know (and probably most of those I don't know) feel right now.

I wonder if the NCAA will grant another year of eligibility for seniors?

Bill, I agreed with your post and I was disappointed to see it removed. We need leaders who will lead and we need the truth. How serious is this? How do I protect my family? Is this an overreaction? I honestly do not know. We’ve had these types of communicable diseases before yet not once have our leaders incited panic among the citizenry. The cancellations put normal folks over the edge. A huge run on goods at the groceries. A run on banks? I wouldn’t bet against it. Just awful. I would like a dose of the truth though from our leaders.

Mark,
Sorry about that, I thought it might be too much, but I share your sentiment... the truth isn't hyperbole or politics it's simply how we protect our families.
