Emphasis On Concussions  

  Sports-related concussions in high school sports can be serious or even life-threatening situations if not managed correctly.  The National Federation of State High School Association (NFHS) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have teamed up to provide information and resources to help educate coaches, officials, parents and students on the importance of proper concussion recognition and management in high school sports.
