It was a question Phil Harder heard throughout the summer. "Will we get to play?" For the head coach of Green River High School's tennis teams, it was a question he didn't know the answer to. The spring sports season, which includes a tennis season, was canceled once the coronavirus pandemic hit Wyoming and while the team was able to have summer workouts, nobody knew if they would even have a fall season. That lingering uncertainty didn't keep athletes from showing up. Harder said his students...
