This is pretty cool that Mykayla took advantage of this opportunity when she filled in as an alternate.  What a story especially with the the year long delay of the games.

Curious to know when the last time we had a Ute medal in the Olympics….

According to Jon Wilner –
 
Now, after a season without football games, after the conference itself deeming its wholly-owned media company suboptimal, the networks are skin, bones and decimated.
We expect them to broadcast a full load of basketball games and Olympic sports during 2020-21, then return with football next fall.
