I dont think so. People are making it work.And sadly, some other colleges and universities will follow the example set by these fools, er, I mean schools.

I am no doctor either but I have common sense. When I am in public(except softball tourneys)for the past 9 months people have been wearing masks except for one lady I saw at the grocery store. Another note: For all of the softball tourneys that have gone on during the Summer and Fall, I don't recall any of those being traced back as a super spreader event when less than half the people were wearing masks. Think about it. On a quadplex, there are 8 teams playing, 8 teams that just got done playing and another 8 teams warming up along with the coaches and parents and college coaches. Add 4 or more fields for some nicer facilities and the ppl double and quadruple.We did. California was the first to shut down and they are still closed.
Florida never shut down and they are still open.
I'm no doctor but somethings wrong when a state on full lock down has more deaths as a percentage of population than a state wide open the whole time. Makes ya wonder.
No they're not.I dont think so. People are making it work.
So DD's school is not allowing spectators, but don't tell the administration or the campus police I am getting on a plane in 2 hours to fly up to watch my DD's team play from deep past the OF fence. @pattar I might need your help to make sure I am doing it right. I will be far enough from the fence that I couldn't get a full water bottle over the fence.No they're not.
My DD's college team has 3 players currently on campus that are allowed to practice (finally) with the Coach. Had to use separate balls (no back & forth catch, and more BS like that. They've announced that there will be no overnight travel IF & WHEN the school's President allows conference games. Oh yeah, that's with masks, Face shields or goggles and social distancing...outdoors on a softball field. High Academic Fear Mongering Stupidity at it's finest.
The MidWest Conference issued a similar statement a week or so ago. It's still up to the individual schools to determine if they participate though and some are really throwing up roadblocks rather than finding a way to move forward. Fingers are crossed.More good news!
