You can only spread your athletes so thin as many of them are playing sports all year long, especially in Class B. There is no guarantee when sports as we knew it will resume. NDHSAA has given the green light for now but that is only step 1. There is still a long way to go to figure things out. Even if a vaccine were available in 2021 there could be issues with having access to it as well as many who won't take it even it were to be available.

You would of moved golf, baseball and possibly track and field to the fall as they can be played more feasibly through social distancing. I’m at the point where if kids are going to be in school they need to have sports.

For the most "dangerous and deadly" virus the world has ever seen it sure seems people are becoming less and less afraid and I am fine with that! Only a vaccine or November 4th will make this go away IMO.
