No matter what happens these next few days/weeks/months, I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend the last 10 years. It's been a pleasure telling your stories. I hope to add a few more chapters, at least.

Of the 500+ pictures I took today, this one is one of my favorites. These two men ARE Kirtland soccer. To see them celebrate together was pretty special. Make no mistake, it wasn't easy to develop 2 powerhouse programs in the shadow of the football program.

Less than 12 hours after winning their second straight title, 42 Kirtland football players were in the weight room this morning at 10:00 a.m. Their 2020 season started this morning. How is yours going?

Thanks to everyone for the support and words of encouragement. The procedure itself was pretty simple... and then we ate cake. Now we wait. I've got about two more weeks in the hospital but I expect to be back on the sidelines this fall.

Parents, if you're getting a police escort away from a high school softball game (or any sport for that matter), you really need to re-evaluate your priorities.
I love the passion. I love the support. But, that's it...draw the line there.

Sad face aside, @aavila_12 closed out her career with 283 assists in eight state Final Four appearances including a Division III record 59 in a five-set match in 2019.
Four state runner-up finishes. A state record. A legacy.

Coach X visited me in the hospital...during his own treatment...and gave me this medal from his 2010 district championship. Last time I saw him but I'll never forget him. Live better. Treat others well. He led by example. Follow his lead.

Sorry, what? Perry's Brayden Richards was SECOND-team All-Ohio?
That's shocking. Player of the Year is probably more appropriate.
I mean, did you see that state championship game? He did it all year.

There is no blueprint for coaches to follow...but there's a lot to be learned from Shawn Dodd...and I'm not talking about what he does on Friday nights.

How about the CVC this fall? 1. State champ in Girls Golf (Independence); 2. 3 football teams in regional finals (Perry, Kirtland, Cuyahoga Hts); 3. State runner-up in girls soccer (Kirtland); 4. One team in volleyball final four (Independence)

I've covered a lot of great teams/athletes but this trio has been rather remarkable. All 3 are playing in a 4th straight Final 4. Common traits: The coaches work as hard as the kids, the players are selfless and there has been widespread buy-in. #ALLIN isn't just a hashtag.

One thing that never gets old is to see these displays of sportsmanship.
Wickliffe's Eliza Wills could have celebrated with her teammates, but first, she consoled her Kirtland rival.
Well done.

First game for me without fans. It's weird but, more importantly, how will the coaches and refs know what to call without the parents? ;-}

"If you didn't get your players from Mentor you wouldn't be $hit." Sorry, idiot, Kirtland is not open enrollment. Not a good look for the South Range community.

Step 4 is in a few hours. I've been so inspired by the athletes and coaches I have come to know. This is my 2nd transplant in 10 years and I couldn't ask for a better group from which to draw strength and courage. #MoreTomorrows #Day8

Tonight, I covered a 30-point game...could it have been worse? Probably. Coach played 15 different kids...JVs in the 4th quarter. He didn't tell them to hand the ball to the other team...they played hard. They didn't shoot 43 3-pointers. They weren't trying to set records.

Schools are the front porch of every community. High School sports are the block parties that bring neighbors together. Strong schools = strong communities = families staying for generations to come. It's all worth it.

Looking ahead--because that keeps me optimistic--let's say this shutdown lasts 8 weeks per the CDC recommendation. That puts us into May. Let's not scrap the season. Let's host a conference tournament/meet then go right into the playoffs. Let's play, we're going to need it.

I've covered hundreds upon hundreds of high school games and it always bothers me when teams leave their bench area a mess. It isn't someone else's job to clean up after you. Set the example for your teammates.

That's one way to ignore being called out for a lack of sportsmanship. Another way would be not to chuck up 43 3-pointers in a 100-point win. Sad representation of @tecumseh_arrows Might be time for a new Twitter profile quote.

To recap my week, I covered a game wearing long johns, a winter coat, gloves and a hat; another wearing shorts and a t-shirt; another where I had to use my camera's rain cover and another dressed in long pants and a hoodie with gloves. What will next week bring?

You'd have to go back to Meghann Wright a decade ago to match what Lydia Kastor has accomplished at Berkshire over the last four years.
Joined the 1,000-point club last week.
