Episode 29: An Interview with Melanie Springer Mock
Over a Whole Month Later…

Athletics are making attempts to resume. USATF and the IOC are releasing new protocols for track and field. The NFL is reconsidering its view of Colin Kaepernick and kneeling. The MLB players union cannot come to an agreement about playing baseball. And the NCAA has announced that a number of college athletes have test positive for the Covid-19 virus.
