What was supposed to be a Grand Slam Track season recap has turned into an autopsy after they canceled their final event. Coach Herbert Johnson makes his return as we talk about the Philly meet, how big of a shock the cancellation was, and what it means for Grand Slam moving forward. Then, we discuss what role the lack of field events played in the struggles of the league, as well as why nobody seems to know how to work them into the fold properly.
