Movin' Mavs stay sharp training at home during the COVID-19 pandemic

With uncertainty surrounding them, the Movin’ Mavs held what would be their last in-person team meeting March 13 in the Physical Education Building.

Two days later, senior Clarence McCarthy-Grogan flew back home to Darwin, Australia. He was then placed under a mandatory 14-day quarantine — orders from the Australian prime minister for everyone arriving in the country in order to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

“Everything just changed so quickly; everything happened so quickly,” McCarthy-Grogan said.

Just a few days prior, McCarthy-Grogan, along with the rest of the Movin’ Mavs, was preparing to compete in the National Intercollegiate Wheelchair Basketball Tournament.
