Caught some of the Noah's Ark Invitational played Friday night in Athens, GA against Florida.
I'm not a fan of playing in any type of precipitation, let alone a steady rain, but they did at UGA.
However, it reminded me of something I have never figured out. IF you are going to put players in the field during a rain, why would you not have them wear a hat or visor to protect their eyes and improve their ability to see the ball?
Hell, if I'm a coach, I may very well insist upon it. The last thing I'm going to want to hear from a player is that they missed or got hit by the ball because the rain in their eyes affected their vision.
