We were scheduled to scrimmage PRP Friday night but I received a call from BE head coach and he told me what had happened and the game was canceled. I don't really know much about what went on but I do know that the heat index that Wednesday was not over the level to stop practice. It was close and hot but the humidity level was low keeping it down.

This year we've been short on trainers that normally pass out the water so I've been on double duty this year and we keep the water ready for when ever needed. We have had a few kids over heat this year only to find out that they are mainly drinking Gatorade when at home and before practice or not drinking much at all. Gatorade's good but we try say 80% water 20% Gatorade.

We'll see what happens on all this and I'll bet they drop that heat index level on when to stop practice.
