A SPRING UNLIKE ANY OTHER: MUCH OF THE COUNTRY QUARANTINED, DAILY ROUTINES
BROUGHT TO A NEAR STANDSTILL BY A GLOBAL PANDEMIC. AND A SPRING WITHOUT
ORGANIZED SPORTS---NO NBA OR MLB, NO MARCH MADNESS, NO AAU OR LITTLE LEAGUE.
OFTEN IN TIMES OF CRISIS, SPORTS CAN BE A GATHERING POINT, A SOURCE OF
COMMUNITY AND SHARED EXPERIENCE. BUT FOR NOW, THE GAMES WE PLAY ARE
PERSONAL, GRASSROOTS MOMENTS OF INDIVIDUAL ESCAPE AND REFLECTION. LIKE THE
WORLD AT LARGE, SPORTS ADAPT AND ADJUST. AND ENDURE.
