State championships, later this summer? Its an idea…

I am so disappointerdd.

Like many high school sports fans including seniors and parents I think this spring has sucked. (sorry for the vulgarity)

The spring season had just begun. Some teams were lucky and traveled south to St George or Arizona to play several other games, but many had only one contest under thier belt when it was closed. At first it seemed to be only a temporary suspension, but as time passed it looked more and more grim.

Recently the Utah High school Activities Association announced the complete postponment of the entire season. I don’t believe they had much of a choice, but it still sucks.

So, its done, what can we do about it?

Could a summer time state tournament be held even after school is over? Giving anothe year of eligibility is out of the question. I really think post season tournaments later this summer is the answer. Who is with me?

I imagine all of the schools might not be intersted, but is there a way to hold some kind of championship? Don’t these kids deserve it.

So many school fields sit vacant during the summer, softball, baseball and tracks could easily do it. Lacrosse might conflict with football later on this summer. Golf and tennis could be done. Let’s do it.
