All Mountaineer sports will operate venues at maximum capacity during the 2021-22 academic year, App State Athletics announced Friday.
“We are excited to welcome the App Nation back to our beautiful campus this fall,” Athletic Director Doug Gillin said. “When our alumni, fans and families are cheering for our teams, it makes a big impact on the experience we provide our student-athletes in our pursuit for competitive excellence.”
The announcement comes just three days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that half of all U.S. adults have been fully vaccinated. According to Gillin, the university plans to continue to prioritize the health and safety of everyone at App State Athletics venues.
