How is your team handling the COVID-19-related shutdown of the 2020 outdoor track and field season?
Here's a sampling of how one team -- Orange County-based Santa Margarita Catholic -- is making the best of its time dealing in the new reality of social distancing, quarantine, online classes and, of course, training on their own.
AWESOME Shout-out and virtual High-5 to Santa Margarita Catholic coach Sean Zeitler and his amazing group of student/athletes for sharing these videos with MileSplitCA.
