BOULDER — When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, virtually every operation in the University of Colorado Athletic Department had to undergo significant changes.
Social distancing. Small groups. Enhanced sanitation procedures. Testing.
All those procedures and more had to be incorporated into the department's daily routine when CU student-athletes were first allowed back on campus in mid-June.
But while every department had to undergo significant changes, there was one that could not take shortcuts or reduce its services in any way, shape or form.
Student-athletes still had to eat — and CU's Performance Nutrition Department still had to make sure a process existed that would ensure every stud
ent-athlete was not only eating, but maintaining a solid nutritional plan at the same time.
