MCA Winter Newsletter
Thoughts from the Director…The winter sports season is in the books. To say it was a “trying season, unlike any other”, would be an understatement. As with most worthwhile things in life, it took work, adjustments and sacrifice to accomplish. You did just that, and so did your athletes, parents, officials and administrators. MHSA, in conjunction with NFHS made it possible for parents, grandparents, friends and fans to enjoy your contests. We can whine about what we weren’t able to do or be thankful for what we got to do. I trust you chose the latter. Have a great spring sports season!
