“Although regular season games and conference championships were canceled this past fall, Mitchell College found ways to keep student-athletes together – developing creative ideas for workouts and practices and socially-distanced team bonding activities. We adopted the slogan, ‘Just Be Better.’ Whether that meant better form, better focus, better student-athletes or better teammates, we put this idea to work during every practice and team event.”
