The Sept. heat has gotten in the way of many sports teams' practice schedules. From football to cross country, nearly all sports teams have had to reassign practices due to the heat.
According to OH Assistant Athletic Director Mark Johnson, OH uses a measurement called the "wet bulb" to determine the safety of athletes in the heat. The wet bulb accounts for “temperature… but then, what’s the humidity like, but also…shade, and [[the]] breeze,” Johnson said.
