Dear App Family,

As we move closer to the start of our fall sport seasons, we all know that COVID-19 continues to have a major impact on our country, our community, our university and App State Athletics.

As a member of the Sun Belt Conference, we continue to gear up for fall sports in a fluid environment filled with daily changes. Beginning in June, we started to phase our student-athletes back to campus in small groups leading up to the Aug. 17 first day of the fall semester. With new protocols and policies in place, our student-athletes, coaches, staff have been resilient through all of the changes in their pursuit of getting back to competition.
