In his Tuesday press conference, Governor Asa Hutchinson said the state is not ready to proceed with phase three of reopening from COVID-19. That phase includes the return of contact sports.

The Nashville Scrapper football team has been holding summer workouts since early June but will now take a dead week period Friday through July 10th.
