It has only been a few weeks, but it seems like months since the basketball season ended. I guess because I have covered so many spring sporting events it just seems like the winter sports were so long ago. I enjoy covering them all. And of course, next August I will be hoping for football to get underway and chase away the heat that no doubt will be here. In the meantime I will enjoy being outside covering all the spring and summer sports.
