As we navigate through this new world and way of living in a unique world we pause to celebrate and pick back up our Sports Family Series. We celebrate the talented Harman family from Walnut Grove and not only the accolades collected by them, but the people and citizens they have become. We thank Russ and Dawn Harman for bringing in their daughters: Hannah, Heather, and Bailey, along with the daughters of Gene and Lynn Harmon, Lexi and Haley. These five ladies would make a tremendous starting five! All of them are very proud of representing their family, school, and community. The pride of representing ignited a drive in each of these athletes that propelled them into the record books and beyond.
Next week…This is a crazy time – the sports world is just beginning to be impacted. Next week we will have a panel to discuss the impacts of the Coronavirus on sports locally, regionally, and nationally. Dr. Will Sistrunk, Infectious Disease Physician; Jim Raynor, Mercy’s Director of Sports Medicine, and Athletic Director Kyle Moats from Missouri State University.
