Ohio Governor Mike DeWine shared a stirring video highlighting all the things we miss about college sports. He did it to promote continued distancing measures. This, amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that’s raging in America today.

DeWine shared the video on Twitter Monday to close up his COVID-19 briefing. In it, we are reminded of some things we used to take for granted — high-fives and hugs.

The video highlighted the way sports touches our hearts in unique ways. And it highlighted the need to continue distancing — so we can get these things back sooner, rather than later.

Ohio has 19,609 confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 at this time, per the official state website.
