#SocialDistancing
“Backpacks full of potatoes. Pull-ups on a tree. Squats while holding a baby cow.” The Richmond-Times Dispatch‘s Mike Barber definitely had me at the lede on this one. Check out his article on the creative ways @UVAFootball players have continued working out without having access to traditional weight rooms. Pictured above, tight end T.J. Kitts.
#HoosCare
Former @UVAFootball and current Philadelphia Eagle Rodney McLeod and his wife, Erika, are working toward helping with the COVID-19 pandemic. Through their charity, Change Our Future, they are donating $25,000 to a local charity that deals with childhood hunger. Watch (or read) the full story on Philly’s local news channel ABC6’s website.
