So, this just happened at our house - in the shadow of COVID-19 both of my daughters signed their National Letter of Intent to play NCAA Softball seated at our kitchen table. The ceremony was NOT held at their High School in front of their classmates or at the Travel Ball facilities with their other teammates...instead it was done via Zoom in an online, rather impromptu fashion. The kids going through this are tough, resilient and determined. Many have no idea if Fall enrollment at their school will even happen or if they will start their college career's online and off campus. While getting shafted in so many ways that is absolutely no fault of their own, this group of kids are still finding ways to celebrate their achievements and embrace each other.
I know this is happening everywhere and to those athletes (and their families) I can't applaud you all enough! Hooray, good luck and go make some noise out there!!
