Western New York writer Linda Dynel, author of the memoir “Leaving Dorian” and the novel “Sunrise and the Seven One Six” (available at barnes and noble.com, goodreads, amazon.com and locally at Crafts and Creations, Inc. and Ticklebridge in Lockport, New York),  has re-posted an article she wrote for the Buffalo News regarding baseline testing in youth football.

This riveting article that was published in 2012 has as much merit today as it did when it was first published.  Ms. Dynel is very impassioned regarding the lack of a national consensus standard for Baseline testing.
