How good are sports if they are affected by Covid?
Answered

Hello, I currently don't know how I would quantify my sports or if I should include them at all. I was supposed to start my first year of tennis sophomore year, but Covid cancelled the season. Junior year I was able to go through a County-Wide (no other county was open at the time) tournament and placed 3rd. Then I went to regionals and did pretty poorly.

Sure, regionals sounds good, but it was during Covid so not every school in my state participated. So would that make it sound worse that I made it into regionals?

I say include it no matter what colleges want to see someone active in all areas of their life and even if Covid messed up your season I think you might as well include it.
