UP NEXT
In accordance with the cancellation of NCAA winter and spring championships, the 2020 NCATA National Championships has been cancelled.
From the NCAA - "This decision is based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat, our ability to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic, and the impracticality of hosting such events at any time during this academic year given ongoing decisions by other entities."
In light of these decisions, and the decisions by several member institutions to cancel or severely limit spring sport participation, the NCATA is cancelling all remaining meets for the 2020 regular season.
