"We have daily zoom meetings with the team where we share information," said Barlow about a practice that has become a common thing across all sports with in-person meetings not possible.
"We break out into separate rooms and install offense and defense. We do have workouts on camera where the whole team is working out on camera two times a week."
Starting this week at Delta College teams have been able to get together and workout in person for the first time in many months. "It's a step in the right direction.," said Barlow. "We are working in pods of ten and doing the things we can do with the guidelines that are in place. We can do some things now that we haven't been able to do."
"Through this whole thing, my message to the team and coaches is that we need to realize there are things that we aren't in control of and we just have to adapt to whatever the situation is."
Despite not having a season that has not stopped players from moving on to four-year schools for next season. Typically averaging 10-15 players a season that goes from playing with the Mustangs to a four-year university this year's group that will be moving on includes defensive back Tre Wortham who played at Bear Creek High School and is already at the University of Connecticut.
"All I can do is the best I can for the local student-athletes," said Barlow. "It's a whole new world for all of us. You can never fully tell how things can work out. We recruit the best student-athletes we have access to and hopefully, we can get them all. Our program is designed to kind of be an all-star team from all the area high schools. If we can get the best kids our area has to offer we can pretty much line up with any team in the state."
